So Day #2 on the quilting effort wasn't AS BAD as Day #1. I planned out my stitching paths, and had fewer hangy threads.
The worst part, is I also now get the issue with shoulder and neck pain. Wow. I feel like I have an ice pick right in the center under my right shoulder blade, and turning my neck to the side is a problem. DS says "ma, you need to work out," I respond that quilting apparently IS "working out."
Sleep was nearly non-existent, even with a sleep aid (should have just opted for the Advil instead).

So, tell me, is there anyone here who has figured out the ergonomics of quilting? Do I need to do it standing up instead?
