Default Review please Lap App or similar product

Has anyone used the Lap App or any set-up similar to it such as Lap desk for sewing applique reading writing free | Etsy?

I am having issues with my back and would like to find something to help when doing handwork.

Thanks so much.

Last year when Pat Sloan (quilter) fell and broke both wrists (I think) she was gifted one of those and at the time, recommended it highly. At that price, I might try a tray that has a bean bag attached, and then just elevate the back part with a light book, to see if working at an angle like that would be something you like, before investing in one.

Great Idea!! Thanks. I'll try that method.

I use a throw pillow on my lap to support handwork. All my supplies are on an end table next to me so I don’t need to balance anything.
