I am using a big executive chair with arms. A neighbor ordered it for his office and he never got around to removing the protective batting that it was wrapped in. After a summer in a hot garage the batting fused to the chair! My husband helped me as we scraped off most of it, but there are some stubborn spots, so I'll have to follow my own advice and quilt a cover for it. |
I use a office chair that I bought at a garage sale for $10. It adjusts up and down but it doesn't stay up. My husband fixed it so it stays in the up position and won't move. I love it.
|
I love my computer chair so I can adjust it up and down depending on the project I am working on.
|
Right now I use an old wooden chair that came from a school. It was the teachers chair.
|
Computor chair but no arms. Had one with arms and it they were always getting in the way. This one is on wheels. Love it
|
I have several office chairs with arms and without. I do prefer the ones without. Now if my GKs wouldn't break the backs with their leaning while on the computer. I have cheap ones and 2 that my neighbor gave me when they got new chairs in his office. I need to get a GOOD one but hate to spend the bucks for it. I also hate shopping.
|
I bought a "tractor seat" rolling chair from Office Supply. Fits my round bottom fine, rolls, and I can adjust the height.
|
armless wheeled computer chair. A good one! cushy but supportive
|
I have a mid-priced computer chair that has lots of padding where needed. The arms of the chair don't bother me. I find it an added help.
You need to shop around and try out different chairs. A while back I thought I saw an ad for a sewing chair but it could have just been a computer chair. You will know when you find it. |
I bought a sewing chair at a fabric store, goes up and down, on wheels and very compfy. Your grey is lovely.
|
Office Chair with wheels! :lol:
|
Office chair with small arms and wheels. Of course a nice thick soft cushion for the long hours sitting in it. Gives me everything I need.
|
Ditto on an office chair with no arms. Height is adjustable. Got it at IKEA for about $80. Probably wouldn't get black if I had a choice as the seat really shows threads, but I don't think I had that option at the time.
|
i have a great chair I got from Office Max that adjusts and I can take it to retreats
|
I have an office chair w/arms(to help me get out of the chair) and wheels(I have carpeting in the bedroom so don't worry about rolling around) and I also use the mesh back support(from the Dollar Tree). I have a BAD back and this works great for me!
|
A good quality office chair without arms. The arms can get in the way sometimes. I have a Cachet armless chair from Steelcase and it is wonderful!!

I use a dining chair that has a cushioned seat and it is one of those that allows you to rock without being a rocker if that makes sense.

all my machines are on folding tables and are too high for a regular chair. I tried desk chair with pillows, and pillows kept hitting the floor. So I bought me a Drafting chair andit is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My back starts to ache if I sit in a chair too long. I snatched this from my husband's office several years ago and LOVE it!
PS....pictured is my sewing buddy 'Crickie'. She is much cuter than the picture shows....she's having a bad hair day! |
Adjustable computer chair with wheels & no arms
|
Your chair should be a height so that your arms bend at a right angle when touching your sewing machine. If your table is higher than a regular sewing machine cabinet, this might be a tall task to find a proper chair. This is my current problem. I bought the highest adjustable office chair I could buy in my town. No arms for me, that's what I prefer.

An office chair with wheels even found a pretty red one on WalMart.com with free shipping I love it.
|
I sit on a wooden chair and quilted a fat cushion with a fat back to keep my back from hurting. I don't like computer chairs for quilting as the wheels pick up the threads and what not. I miss the waste basket a lot lol!
|
I have an Office Depot chair with rollers and arms. It is really comfortable and does not break the bank. Around 59.00 if I can remember correctly. I like the rollers as I can roll from one work station to the other without getting up. LAZY, I know.
|
A plastic lawn chair with a seat cushion and it is just the right height for me. I am short and have herniated discs in my neck so I don't have to bend while using this chair. I am not much more than eye level with what I am working on.

armless, smaller-sized, padded office chair with wheels on a heavy plastic office floor mat (don't know what those are called - maybe they're just called, 'heavy plastic office floor mats'). lol...

I have a friend who bought a bungie chair. Hers is armless but they are available with arms. Am on the look out for one because it really was comfortable.
|
I have both office chairs, one with arms the other without. Mostly I use the armless one for free motion stitching and if I am getting up and down a lot. Also changing the hight can relieve backache
marg |
I use a secretary's chair with no arms, an adjustable back cushion and adjustable height. My sewing table is 30" high.
|
High back office chair on wheels, with lumbar support. I took the arms off - cramped my style.
|
I have a desk chair on wheels - no arms. Works great for me.
|
I took the arms off a computer chair. I have long legs, and its easier for me to roll back and swivel around to get out of the chair. Also easier on my bad back. Uncle Arther came to live in my back.lol An old saying my Granny used to say.
