When I sew away from home, I always take some chair cushions with me as I find most places the tables and chairs are totally wrong!! If the chairs are stackable, I'll often put two together to sit on ... works perfectly for height and comfort.
I've only been to one location that had some consideration for their customers sewing comfort ...... risers under the cutting/work tables, plus adjustable office chairs!
