in my last home i used guest bedroom as my sewing room. hubby made my sewing table, measured to my height, so that i could stand to sew, press, cut ..whatever. in current home no room big enough for my beloved table so, when i am able to sit for short spells i sew at dining table now. but back is worse and not doing much sewing at all. i do have one quilt top that i need to quilt. i do that standing at kitchen counter ..island type but w drop in stove. so i cover whole mess w plastic table cloth held down by binder clips. time consuming but only way that i can fmq w domestic. i
have to stand up to quilt. it's not an issue for the foot pedal ..i position machine so that the pedal just reaches floor and lays flat.
