Sore bottom
I hope this isn’t TMI (too much information), but does anyone’s bottom ever get sore from quilting? Sometimes I feel like I get bursitis in my bum from sitting at the machine and piecing quilts.
I’m recently retired, and so I have more time to sew than I used to. I have an excellent chair. I sew for awhile and then get up and do some housework. I sew for awhile and then go for a short walk outside. I really do try to break up my “sitting” sessions.
But my posterior sometimes gets really sore. I wonder if it’s the angle of sitting while sewing that causes the problem. Because sewers sit with one leg slightly stretched to the foot pedal, maybe normal weight distribution is somewhat different than just normal sitting???
Are derriere issues an occasional problem with other sewers/quilters, or is it just me?
