Everybody is different but I get cramps in my ankles when I sew to long if the foot peddle is on the floor. He attached velcro to the bottom of the peddle and to the leg of the table so I can use the control with my leg. If you think this would be good for you the legs on your beautiful table look to be the right size for this.

Thank you what a great idea!!! Will keep this in mind .

What a talented husband you have!!! It is so nice that he could make your sewing more enjoyable with the thread holder and the table. He is certainly a keeper. Love what the two of you did to the house too!
I have a keeper in a husband too, but he can just change light bulbs! :lol:

We will celebrate 46 years of marriage in Sept. He is a keeper, just not handy with making things. He's always been a good money manager, and can take care of our 4 grandchildren alone if necessary. They are 7,5, and twins 2 1/2. He was also great at changing their poopy diapers when asked, and the little ones went to him to do it, starting with the 5 yr old when Mom was first expecting the twins and smells bothered her. :-D :-D :-D

Bev 08-23-2011 01:15 PM

You got lucky. Your DH is a real keeper!
I love your table. It's amazing! 8-)

Great looking table. Wish I had room for something that size.

Love your sewing table. Your Hubby did a great job. He is real handy like mine.

TootieAnn 08-23-2011 02:02 PM

Cool! I want a table like that. It certainly would solve my problems of finding a place to cut my projects out and a way to support my quilt while quilting. I love it. Thanks for posting!

What a great table. I'm amazed at your big project. It has turned out beautiful. When you're finished on the inside, you'll have to send us pictures of it. I believe that DH of yours is a keeper. :thumbup: :thumbup:

tatavw01 08-23-2011 05:04 PM

Wow :-P :-P :-P

quilter41 08-23-2011 05:18 PM

Just so you know what a Gem you have. Just for Grins & Giggles I looked at a Koala cabinet today that was similiar except it had storage under it and she gave me a price of $2800 on sale. I don't think so.

Jingle 08-23-2011 05:31 PM

Great table. so glad you got it.

dellareya 08-23-2011 05:33 PM

Your husband sounds like a keeper. This table looks beautiful. May you be blessed with many hours of happy sewing there.

DonnaB 08-23-2011 05:48 PM

What a great idea, and a handy dh.

lasews 08-23-2011 05:50 PM

Wonderful table! I love the ability to lower the machine plus the leaf in the back!

AnnaF 08-23-2011 05:51 PM

That is a great setup.

auntdeb 08-23-2011 05:52 PM

Niiiice! The wheels sound handy as does the fold away extra table top.

MimiLinda 08-23-2011 06:05 PM

Beautiful table. Wonderful husband. My husband my son both do woodworking. Would love to buy the pattern if your hubby gets it all together. Please PM me if this would happen. And enjoy all of your blessings. :D
