"I've been working on the floor my whole life so I don't know how to work on a table. Well, not my whole life...but my whole sewing life. I just feel more comfortable on the floor.

My studio is in my home. It was hard to work when I lived with my friends because I was always distracted. It really helps now that I live alone.
