Just checking to see if anyone has ordered the Tilt Table from Nancy's Notions. I am wondering if it is worth the price. Thanks so much! |

You could use books, magazines, whatever that tilts it at a height that is good for you. Tilting does ease the shoulders if you tend to sew for long periods of time. It also makes the sewing area more visible.

The carpet pad helps stabilize my machine when it is on the tilt. I found when sewing at higher speeds the machine's natural vibration caused it to scoot forward a bit when using the door stops. ------ Happy Seams to you....until we meet again!
