Spreading Out

Recently I realised my sewing machine cabinet and my kitchen table are within a few millimetres of being the same height as each other. So to help with quilting this piece I have moved my sewing machine so that it has the kitchen table sitting immediately behind it. This helps support the quilt while I am working on it, reducing drag.
There's still lots of quilt stuffed through the throat of the machine, making manoeuvring my right hand a bit tricky. But the extra space makes parts of the job much easier.
