In my recliner with a TV table on the right side with all the needed items under a very bright light. My DH likes it when I am with him watching TV and I can still do my sewing. There are times when I think that I really don't want to sew that binding on by hand, but when I get started it is very soothing. I also like to see how well I can do my stitching so that you can't see it at all, self challenging usually serves me well.
