It also helps me to remind myself to breath, relax and shakeout my arms while I'm sitting at the machine. <br /><br />I have a stack of very old red work blocks for a quilt that I have never done anything with because I was afraid of being able to quilt them. You did a great job with yours. <br /><br />Coincidentally, *I* moved my cats' bowls into the studio today–their water fountain and litter box are also in the big space. I plan to corral them in here when the repair people come to deal with the damage from a leak from the upstairs bath through the downstairs ceiling. I know that otherwise, Grace will be terrified and end up under the covers on my bed and Johnny will be completely underfoot. sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13408822963659450038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-34861011397984106242013-05-15T06:12:38.222-07:002013-05-15T06:12:38.222-07:00If you can't make your chair higher try to fin...If you can't make your chair higher try to find a lower table. 2 inches can make a lot of pain go away.
