Question Buying an extension table...help

I have a Janome DC2011 and love it but would like to have a wider table to try and do some free motion quilting. Does anyone know if Janome makes one or what some good options are out there.
thanks for your time

I have the "Sew Steady" extension tables for mine. They make them to fit your brand and model machine. http://www.allbrands.com/products/35...-table-clear-a

LOL! Great minds think alike. I was just looking up a link to that for her. I have one for my little Brother machine and I love it.

I have a Janome table with a cut out for the machine to set into. It's about 45" side to side and 18" front to back. I bought it from my Janome dealer when I bought the machine. Here's a site that sells some but none are just like mine. Mine is closest to the second one on the page but the legs are different. I love mine.

Thanks all.. what size do you have? I'm wondering if the Jr size (11.5x15) would be big enough to use with the supreme slider and I'm think about buying a quilt halo.

I am not sure what it is that you are looking to find. The small extension table as seen on the website, or are you looking for a table to drop your sewing machine into - like the Sew-Ez table (it comes with a cut out for your machine) for $249.00. You can buy an extra table for another $199.99 to butt up against it so when you need it you have the additional space and put it away when you don't. I love mine, it is very sturdy. (My Janome came with a table it sets into, so all I have to do is reduce my ironing board and it works as my extra table.

I was talking about the little extenders that I could take with me to my guild and use at home with my slider.. but I'm taking in all the information for both. The one is more in my price range at the moment but at some point, after I've saved up some, I'd like a larger real drop in table for use at home if I try a big project.

My DH made me this table. It cost about $30 and can be removed easily (although I usually keep it up since it makes a great work surface.) He also cut off the legs of the old table to adjust it to my height. Sewing machine is easily removed from the table. Here is the directions link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAS25v3ZTk0.
