Sewing table built by wonderful DH!
 
3 Attachment(s)
I've bought a Bernina 710...a lovely big girl that I am thrilled with but I needed a table for her as she is too big for the old sewing cabinet which still houses my old faithful Janome. My DH welded a frame up using metal tubing and then bought some laminated board from a local kitchen manufacturer and hey presto I now have a table including a lowered shelf for the machine. I have only just finished my first "getting to know the Bernina" lap quilt and am very happy with how the table worked. Next planned project is a 90" x 90" quilt for our bed. Purchasing fabric tomorrow...happy dancing tonight!

Nice table and you know it's solid. Looks great.

ManiacQuilter2 03-11-2015 12:07 PM

Looks great! I would have him add on a pull up side table for when you quilt something as large as a Queen, you will need support on your left side.

Wow it looks bought ! What a lovely size lots of room for cutting x

Pam S 03-11-2015 02:28 PM

Wow, a custom-made table! Fantastic.

Thank everyone for your lovely comments. Yep I agree, a lift up table at the left would be great...wonder how I can tactfully introduce that to "after dinner" conversation? Hmmmmmmm

What a handy hubby. Good on him.

Julienm1 03-12-2015 04:57 AM

Just what I like...room to the left, a little room to the right...lotta room behind!

sherian 03-12-2015 05:18 AM

really great hubby! Wonderful for you, enjoy!

Jingle 03-12-2015 05:40 AM

Looks great, I would need the left side to come out in an L. Seems my quilts get hung up on my left side. I put a 2x4 folding table to my left and that works.

Your DH is a treasure to do something so wonderful and useful for you. Can I borrow him? Never mind I can't swim that far or carry a table home on my back as I swim. (*aww nuts.)

audsgirl 03-12-2015 09:02 PM

Fantastic table! You've got a gem of a husband. So handy. Congratulations.
