New Sewing Table-build it yourself

January 2015
Many thanks for a great idea: frommarthawithlove.com
The Ikea table transformed into a quilting table with no drag... Both my machines will easily fit in the space.    Ok, I'm actually excited about doing a large quilt. Thanks JJ!!! 
Total cost including shipping, taxes, and a few 6" screws- about $102.00.  Actually a large savings considering that most of the sewing cabinets with a drop down for the machine start around $1,200.
