Mona,
Have you heard of Marguerita McManus on Youtube? She had a first book called "crazy shortcut quilts", well her new book "sew & quilt in comfort" (only pub. Feb. 2011) is about setting up your sewing area with ergonomics in mind (whole body comfort). She discusses chairs, tables heights that fit YOU, flexibility in your sewing room layout, etc. She wrote this due to so many friends with long term repetitive injuries in sewing & quilting. I think it is very worthwhile. She is also famous for her "how to build a cheap quilting table" video. You should have a look. Best wishes, Cathy
