I have a LA so obviously I DO stand and quilt. But...for the rest of my sewing and cutting, I sit. I have my ironing board at a comfortable height, and that is usually where I do my cutting and ironing. I have had two back surgeries and have had back pain requiring heavy duty pain meds at times...(makes for some interesting quilts)...LOL, of COURSE you know I'm teasing, don't you? Well, don't you? Actually, if I'm hurting so badly I have to resort to pain meds, I just don't quilt until I feel better. But standing is a very doable option for me...
