The needle is 11" back from the edge of the table for me. I sat so the machine was a comfortable distance and this seems to be ok. Wouldn't want it any further away...and even could be an inch closer maybe, but it's not a problem.
And no, I don't bump my knees at all.

That is a beautiful table! Wow. But how do you turn it on and off and plug it in?
Onmy Janome the plug-ins and the switch are on the lower right side of the machine. That may be a big nono.
It's not a problem at all to turn on and off...there's plenty of space in the hole hubby cut to put my hand there and switch it on and off. I leave everything plugged into the machine all the time and I just unplug the surge protector from the wall when I've finished sewing. I do switch the machine off first before unplugging the surge protector..lol.
