Hi Everyone!

Many hours spent at the sewing machine can create aching shoulders particularly if you are working on a large sewing project or spending many hours at your sewing machine.

Thanks, Maree, This is very timely for me. My dodgy shoulder is playing up, so i’m off to get some wedges!
Hi Leonie,
Thank you so much for your message! It’s lovely to hear from you. I’m sorry to hear of your challenges but wonderful to hear your mum lives only 5mins away. 93 what a great long life! Excellent to hear about Jan too!
I hope you are able to get right into your sewing again in 2012!
Enjoy the rest of this year and all the very best for you and your family.
Take care,
Maree
Ooops, sorry I forgot that the comments were printed on page…..thinking it was going to your email. Sorry to all you sewing friends for having to read my life for 1911!!!!!
Hi Maree
Lovely to see you and your sewing room, remembering happy times spent with you, what a great idea will definitely try it. My year has been very topsy turvy, had glandular fever early in year, Samantha’s marriage broke down and Mum now in an aged nursing home. She became very ill in July and in September moved into a lovely home five minutes from our place. At 93 she is happy there but very frail, the staff are just wonderful and as I drive away thank God that we were able to find her a happy place to live. Jan had a lovely trip to the UK and is enjoying her grandchildren. She is still busy sewing but afraid apart from altering clothes for Mum my sewing is on the back burner. Hopefully in 1912 things will change. Please say hello to girls from Jan & myself. love Leonie
Thanks Marg!
Yes I agree using two rubber wedges would be perfect! I will have to update my wooden one with two rubber ones like you!
Happy Sewing,
Maree
Hi Maree,
Yes, that’s a great tip and I can vouch for it. I actually use two rubber wedges, one each side which probably gives a bit more stability. It really does save the shoulder strain.
Keep up the good work!
Regards,
Marg
