    Default Hello there!

    Hello there!

    Don't post much here. Does anyone know anything about Arrow sewing tables?

    Good reviews? Bad reviews?

    I'm just wondering what you guys think about them.

    Also,

    What are your pet peeves when it comes to sewing?

    Thanks a bunch!

    I don't know anything about the tables, sorry. I hate when the phone rings when I'm sewing and the person thinks they can go on and on because I'm ONLY sewing.

    I use an old but good kitchen table for sewing. I cannot get used to sewing tables. Weird, eh?

    I also love the Gidget 2. I think it's pretty sturdy. It is small though, so I use it along with a folding table for some extra space. Works for me since I have a very small corner of the bedroom to sew. I only haul out the extra table when quilting.

    Did you notice the size of machine it will hold, on this site it says 17 ½" w x 7 3/8" d, do you might want to measure your machine & see if it's even possible to use it. http://mccallpattern.mccall.com/gidg...hp?page_id=559

    The tables are small, I had one and sold it. My machine did fit but the table vibrated, jiggled, etc. I put the table on hardwood, carpet, anti-fatigue mats and nothing helped. To sum in up in one word...crap.
