    Well, I tried my new knee pads. Why did I wait so long yo get them? They were great. Made getting down on my knees really easy. Now I no longer have to dread sandwiching my quilts.

    They are great! My big trouble is remembering to put them on first before I'm in pain. These little jewels are good for so many things. Never knew we were on our knees so much. Need two pairs though...inside and out....They should come in pink...LOL

    knee pads don't even help me now. I have 2 long folding tables I put up to do my sandwiching of the quilts on. then i can put them away when done no sore knees. yard work has to be where no knee work comes in play.

    I had knee surgery on one knee so it is hard to get on one knee, wish they made butt pads as that is how I have to sit if I do it on the floor. I also use tables and sometimes our queen size bed which I put the folded cardboard we use to use for sewing. As you can see I have a hard time throwing sewing items away

    Reminds me of when I was working and one of the guys had to kneel on grating to do a job. He asked me to for two sanitary pads from the bathroom. He tied them around his knees. Poor guy was the sight of the day but he saved his knees. Knee pads for all workers were bought not long after that. LOL

    I can't get on my knees because I NEED surgeries! I've used pillows but never the knee pads. I need to get some.
