Well, when I demonstrated (sans machine, quilt or table - kinda like "air guitar" quilting) he told me that wants my hands to be a height somewhere between my belly button and my last rib. Right now my hands are about even with my arm pits. MUCH too high.
I know this sounds stupid (to him - perhaps not to you guys) but I'm almost done quilting this quilt. I don't want to make any changes to my set up now. My "muscle memory" is there.
as soon as I'm done though I'm getting out the jig saw!!
I just went in and checked my chair and table....Can't lower the table, but I can raise the chair, because my hands are at about my arm pits too, and I've just had the same pain you have...so hopefully this will keep me from going to my Chiropractor. Sorry you had to have pain to help some of us avoid it.
