What a mess...


I'm wondering if I am the only quilter to have such a mess in her studio after finishing a quilt....
I'm waiting for comments!! :-)))

Sewing table

Today I will show you some photos of my self-made sewing table. First I drew the outside of my Bernina on a cardboard, than cut it out until it perfectly matched the machine. With his card board I went to a glass shop. They cut me a plexiglass plate with this card board.
At home I layed out the plexiglass plate on the table and drew around. The hole is cut 1/2" smaller than this line, because you need some space to lay the plate upon. The plate is 1/8" thick, so we had to cut down the table on this 1/2" with a special tool for 1/8" so that the plexiglass fit into the hole and is evenly with the table.
After cutting the hole we had to built the support for the machine. The height of this case depends from your machine, mesure exactly!
Oh my..it's not so easy for me to explain all this in English, but as you can see, I try very hard! :-)
I think you will understand what I mean when you see all the pictures......hopefully.... :-)
My sewing table looked like this before cutting the hole for the machine....

Under the table, the backside of the case is a little bit larger to place all the cables. On the
left side you can see a little hole where the machine cables come out to the back

front of the case

The case is open to the front of the machine, to change the bobbin and to fit the knee-lever for the machine foot
