I might even add some pockets on the arms to hold the remotes and my sewing stuff!

Thank you - you're very clever and talented - and generous to share your idea, too.
Polly parrot,
If you add pockets for remotes etc. make sure the side they are not in is well anchored. I made some and put pockets both sides to try and level weight. Why not put a pincushion on top as well for pins when sewing so you don't ruin the leather.
