I do the same as Becky's crafts. Bulk of my fabric is to the right. I have left handed scissors. I have trouble with the reverse button on my machine, I am always pressing the button oaf which is the reverse image. I am also always knocking thing on the left on the floor because that is where I sat the items when I was finished and then the items get covered up with fabric as I go on and I knock things on the floor. I am use to it but is does it does gets annoying.
