We recently moved and downsized. I took a small bedroom 11 x 11.5 as my sewing room. I have furniture and sewing machines around three sides of the room with closet doors on the fourth side. On Craig's List I found a business that sells old hotel/motel furniture and bought a 42" square table for $35. I put it on risers and have it in the center of the room. I used to have a long table, so it has been an adjustment to get used to. The table had a few dings, but is very sturdy.
