I’m often asked how do I sew when I have a lot of back pain? First answer is I don’t work in the same position for long, I work on multiple projects all the time. I don’t usual have many days where I sew but today is one of them LOL
This is what Im doing this morning!
Making up applique pieces for my QG Final borders. I stand to do this. These are for the QG below.
Update on my QG 10.30pm last night.
quilting in the ditch on this bargello, I sit on a stool on wheels and it is adjustable for height, so I can lower or left it depending on what I’m sewing.
IVe just stopped appliqueing down leaves here using my Janome, it also has a stool on wheels I find them much better than a chair on my back. Sitting on top of the sewing machine are 2 daisies I need to applique for my QG I will do those now to change my sewing position. Then it will be back to the leaves.
IM hand quilting this and it’s all ways out ready to add a few stitches when I need to relax my back.
Hanging over my rocking chair is some sashiko hand quilting for when I want to sit and also put my body in a different position.
Tomorrow it will be the same or may be some thing very different, today I’m thinking about QAYG hexagon antique and vintage linen and lace blocks so I may even start those to day LOL visited Rhonda Cox Dort’s blog today what an eye opener and inspiration. https://rhondadort.com/
