In the free motion quilting video a plexiglass extension for my sewing machine was highly recommended. I checked my catalogs and didn't find any listed. Suggestions on the best place to buy one will be greatly accepted.

You might also be able to get a cabinet to put your machine in to for cheaper at a second hand store. I know by me you can get a nice wooden cabinet that will make your machine level with the table surface for about $15-$20.

I just had a look at the website. The table may be a good price but the postage to Australia for the 18 x 24 is $92.44 :shock: :shock: :shock:

If you are handy, you can make one. I'm almost positive I saw here someone who made one.
