The top piece is cut from a 4ft X 8ft and i,m not sure if a 4 x 8 table is to big .Or I could make it like 4 x 6 ft .
Is a 4 x 6 ft table as big as I will need.
Or do as they say go big or go home.
Thanks

I do not think it is too big
I have a table that is 2' by 6' with an attached, hinged, 2' by 6'. Though it has hinges, it never is folded down.
There is 3 ' on the left of my machine and 2' on the right
( I rounded all these measurements to the nearest 6 inches.)
Also, there is a cabinet to the left that is all drawers and I have a board, my husband says it is 1/8" floor under layment, that goes on top of the open drawer making a support for large quilts
If you have the room for the 8', go 8'!
