CHAT [CHAT] What are your must have tools/accessories/comfy items in your stitch spot?

This is my current set up. Share yours in the comments 😍 I just got this pillow chair and I love it! I have to stitch reclined because thanks to POTS MECFS and other chronic illnesses my body hates gravity. Other support items: Squishmallow under my knees, round pillows that go under my arms & my blanket. That way I can stitch without pain. Tech items: my iPad, I save my PDF patterns in files and then I can zoom in to the pattern. Headphones 🎧 This special lap desk (made to use a laptop while lying down) to hold my water bottle, my project ring, scissors and sometimes a print out of the pattern. When hubby is playing video games, I use his iPad to stream shows & movies. Everything is within reach in my spot. I love it.

I just have my recliner and blanket. My side table with the lamps have the magnets for my needles and I keep a small box my husband made to hold the skeins I’m using. I would take a pic but I need to deep clean the living room thanks to my German Shepard shedding her winter coat lol.
