So many good ideas here, but I just wrote the above in my quote journal, great advice.

Two of the best things I ever did for my sewing comfort was spring for a good office chair, and use the up and down function. Down for the machine so I'm not hunched, and up for the ironing board so the iron is used properly.

the other was to take my $40.00 banquet table to a kindly cabinet maker, along with my machine, and have it set in level. The difference that makes in sewing comfort and pleasure is immeasurable.

We buy so much carpola, and then squeal about spending money where it would make a difference
