Affordable quiltingsewing table
 

I just got my IKEA catalog and always find something practicle for sewing....

This table blows me away for the price.... a lot of similar tables from the sewing furniture co.'s are more money... the pull out is "either side" assembled.... just had to share....hugs B

I want that!

All it needs is a slot in the top for your machine. Great price.

Thanks for the info. I looked it up on the Australian site and (as I am ever watchful of the pennies) I was delighted to see that it is only $199.00 - well worth a look.

So glad you found a good deal that you love!

Me too! LOL!

Have any of you ever checked out this Ikea re-do site? It's cool! http://www.ikeahackers.net/

Too bad there isn't a cut out for the machine. It is a good price though.

I bought the Norden gateleg dining table from Ikea for my sewing room. It is very versatile for a small space and has several drawers. Don't know how to get the link here but I noticed it's still in the catalog and is $179.

I bought that desk a couple of years ago and it works very well. Since then, I've upgraded my sewing machine and my entire sewing room, but this worked out really well for me while I was using it.

I'm still using the desk (but as a desk) but the pressing part is still in action. Here's my new layout:

Sew do I. It is very reasonable.

I recently bought the Sauder Harbor View desk and hutch and I am loving it. I get to store some of my scrapbooking supplies in it too.

my sewing table is a blank metal clad door. it was undrilled and i found it in the economy department of things that were sold cheap. one side had some scratches. I put it on brackets made of a length of 2x4 wood mounted to back of bookshelves made of pressboard , each facing out. Painted them so you don't know they are pressboard and mounted a goosneck lamp from commercial sewing machine on top of one of them. If my room had been a bit larger, i would have used a 6' book shelf on one end and mounted cork board on the back as well. At one point this thing was mounted with one shelf and mounting board attached to wall , at one point it was mounted with 1 shelf and two filing cabinets (I had to build up one of the filing cabinets with an old phone book, but no one could tell.

Yes, there are some wonderful ideas out there.

I was looking for the dimensions and didn't find them....do you know the size?

If you mean the dimensions on the IKEA desk, here they are:
