    I just moved to Calif from West Virginia, and am living with my daughter and son in law. We had a puzzle as to how to set up a space for my sewing room and my DD generously offered to share her office space. I went to Ikea and found two bookcases that fit perfectly in the closet, and some storage tables with lots of drawers which made a perfect cutting table. I think we solved the space issue quite well and we are both satisfied with the result. Keep going in there to see my fabric, I love it so much. Wrapped it on comic book boards, but ran out halfway thru, had no idea how much fabric I had. LOL

    Hey, did you buy that plexiglass table attached to your machine or did someone make it for you?
