I thought I was the only one that did that! I have a bad back and the up and down is harder than just standing. I actually started doing this while I was studying architecture and goused to standing at the drefting table.

I once had my serger on a tall table where I could stand and sew. It worked really well, and I felt liek I could go really a lot faster for some reason.

I'm just setting up my own sewing space (hooray!) so I'm going to try that. What a timely tip. Thanks....

I sew while serging and it is so much easier. I do sit at the regular machine, but only because that's how it is set up. But yes, it is better for the back to sew standing, I think. Thanks for the tip

A novel idea!

I will give it a try!

LOL I also though I was the only one! I put my serger or portable machine on a cardboard cutting table. Handling big fabric pieces just seems easier when standing.

As I read your tip, I started imagining how I could raise my machine higher [lots], and had to laugh at myself...my machine is in its own cabinet.
I have adjusted my cabinet by putting wheels under the legs to raise it a few inches for my height.
Thanks for the interesting idea, wish I could try it.

brilliant idea, i will give it a try as it will not aggravate my painful back, luckily for me my machine can run without a foot pedal
