I got smart and finally got a new chair that will raise and lower. I can raise it high enough so I can sit and cut at my table.
I also have my ironing board down to the level where I can sit and iron. So now when I'm sewing, I can sew, then turn and "wizz" over to my ironing board, then back to machine. I don't have to get up. Hubby says it's lazy, I say it's smart!

It's VERY smart. That's what I have in AZ. In CT, my sewing machine is in a different room from my cutting table!

I think so too! I used to have a carpet on the floor, but the chair wouldn't roll too well. When I changed rooms, I just left the carpet out. Now I am much happier and my feet don't hurt from standing on the ceramic tile.

I LOVE that your daytime is my 12:15am - because I'm an insomniac. Nice that someone else is awake!

When I return to AZ and my sewing room with the CEMENT floor, I may get another yoga mat, because SOMETIMES I do have to stand up!
