Welcome to the Quilting Board!

I bought the Norden gateleg dining table from Ikea for my sewing room. It is very versatile for a small space and has several drawers. Don't know how to get the link here but I noticed it's still in the catalog and is $179.
I bought that desk a couple of years ago and it works very well. Since then, I've upgraded my sewing machine and my entire sewing room, but this worked out really well for me while I was using it.
I'm still using the desk (but as a desk) but the pressing part is still in action. Here's my new layout:
Finally finished quilt room!

I recently bought the Sauder Harbor View desk and hutch and I am loving it. I get to store some of my scrapbooking supplies in it too.

When it seems like the world is falling to pieces remember that the pieces are falling into place. We are nearing closer to the End Times.
my sewing table is a blank metal clad door. it was undrilled and i found it in the economy department of things that were sold cheap. one side had some scratches. I put it on brackets made of a length of 2x4 wood mounted to back of bookshelves made of pressboard , each facing out. Painted them so you don't know they are pressboard and mounted a goosneck lamp from commercial sewing machine on top of one of them. If my room had been a bit larger, i would have used a 6' book shelf on one end and mounted cork board on the back as well. At one point this thing was mounted with one shelf and mounting board attached to wall , at one point it was mounted with 1 shelf and two filing cabinets (I had to build up one of the filing cabinets with an old phone book, but no one could tell.
