My sewing table is an old desk, not a lot of room to the right of the machine, the top right hand drawer is great for holding small things I need while sewing, extra bobbins, snips, ripper, ect when Im done I just close drawer. lower drawers I keep thread, extra and specielty needles, machine feet manual ect in. The drawers on the left hold extras or specility thing like extra gloves, tracing and graf paper music CD, back up scissors, containers I only use when taking cutters and othe small thing to classes and retreats.
