    I wish I could say that it's the nice chair in front of the big screen television. I could watch old movies while working, but kitties think it is a great place to sleep and they weigh down my knees, not to mention the hair they leave behind. Guess it will have to remain the table in the sewing room. It has a television, but not as big.

    I have what they call a chair and a half with huge ottoman. My Ott Light is there too. When the NFL football season starts thats where you will find me, stitching away. I never miss a game! But just can't sit, have to sew, embroider or applique.

    Hypothetically, it would be in my recliner w a good lamp for lighting. However, whenever I sit there, I end up with at least one cat on my chest/in my face. Thus, no sewing gets accomplished!

    If I am sewing on a binding, I like to sit in my recliner and put a movie on the TV. When I'm *unstitching* or just doing a small amount of hand sewing, I like to sit out back on our deck or in my Cracker Barrel rocker on my front porch (weather permitting). I really prefer the natural light.

    Last year, I bought my husband a fancy recliner that has heat and massage. He never uses the recliner except to read the morning paper. It has become my sewing chair. I have news on the TV or listen to an audio book while I do my hand sewing there. I have an Ott light by the chair and wear my clip on magnifying glasses. I love it when I have hand sewing.

    My favorite place is my new Tony Little anti-gravity chair with massage and heat....only problem is once I fire up the massage, I fall asleep! My sewing projects usually end up, untouched, on the side table! Zzzzzzzzzzzzz! Lol!
