    And it was so simple. Why didn't I think of this before?

    I don't have a designated sewing space so I sew at my dining room table and sit in a hard wooden chair. Or at least I used to.

    My computer is in another room and I love to sit here and looks at quilt pictures all day long instead of making my own. The other day I decided to take my nice comfy computer chair to the dining room to sew. Now the hard chair is at my computer and I just can't sit here for too long anymore. I've made seven table runners this week except for the binding. As Charlie Sheen would say - "Winning!"

    :thumbup: Way to go! Would like to see your table runners. What design were you using? I need to get started on Easter table runners; even tho Easter comes late this year, time always gets away from me :wink:

    it always helps to be comfortable. It makes it more fun to get projects done. Are you going to share photos?

    Love it! Glad you found something cushy for your tushy!
    Me too...I use an office chair for sewing now and can sew for much longer times.
    Glad you figured it out...quilting is fun!
