Found an identical table on FB marketplace for $20, bought a portable walking foot sewing machine on FB for $150, followed your build instructions and now I have a wonderful setup. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring. Worked like a charm!
I have 2 sewing tables. One we got at the thrift store that was an old sewing table with no machine and my boyfriend modified the hole for my machine to fit into it. The other table we bought a ready made tabletop at a big box store and my boyfriend cut a hole. They carry many sizes and I got the biggest available. They also have ready made legs that we predrilled for the screws, these can be adjusted for height too by cutting or adding rollers. drawers are an old filing cabinet that used to fit under another table. Much cheaper than purchasing ready made at a store!
I reused those little containers that Deli meat comes in… they fit perfectly into a drawer. One holds small scissors, one for needle packages , etc. handy dandy
I love thrift store finds. My husband found two metal cabinets with doors to use as a base for a sewing table - he then took a full size 4’ X 8’ sheet of maple plywood and trimmed it out and put on the top of those bases. It is my sewing table and cutting table! I love that my husband is always working to make my one of my passions so much easier. Yes Jesus is my first passion!!!
It’s like you can read minds. I have an old Singer SlantOMatic without the cabinet. I was thinking I need to make a hole in my work table. Thank you for showing how to do that.♥️
Great to a hubby that works to make your quilting life better. I’m has modified our computer desk to a cutting table for me with drawers that are awesome. My sewing machine has been fitted into a sewing machine desk. Right now I’m thinking about a new machine with a bigger throat size, right now I’m has a 6” which is hard to put a quilt through. Thanks for sharing your upgrade. 👍❤️😊
Exactly the tutorial I needed. I think I will add one of those slippery mats with the feed dogs cut out so the cut edge is even less noticeable when I am sewing. Thank you so much!
I have a Juki just like yours and did something similar with an Ikea table. I was concerned because the machine is so heavy but it's holding up pretty well. Your husband did a nice job!
My compliments to you and your husband on your sewing table..so nice of you to share this clever idea..love every one of your videos and music is so calming..
Thanks so much for sharing this. I want my husband to do the same thing. And make it 29" also. I have an old office chair that goes up and down. All the way up is the most comfortable sewing position but my toes barely touch the floor. I am showing my husband your video today! Thanks again for this video and most of all for your great channel.
Beth how do you have or find so many, many different scraps? I don't often see you cut yardage. I love scrappy quilts more than the matchy matchy. Love your daughters quilt.
Thanks for sharing! I have a table I want to do the same for my two heavy machines and switch them out as I need them. Every time I watch one of your videos, I always wonder “How did she adapt that table for her sewing machines?” Now I know. And looks very easy to do. 😊❤️
Hi Beth: How wide and deep does your desk/table measure?! Those ladies looking for a handyman😳 Perhaps look to church members, neighbors, ask your friends and coworkers for a referral !!! I am blessed to have grown up with a father🕊️✝️ who was handy/DIY and taught us how to do it all! Then to have my husband who also fills those shoes!!! We are in the process of setting up a space for me. It’s been a long time coming and being frugal is important as well🤑. Thanks for listening 🤔😝 ❤️😀
This is a fabulous idea, job well done, thank you 😀 PS would you please loose the distracting music playing while you are talking, it makes it very difficult to listen to you
Good afternoon, I have a Juki 2010q and a similar table. I have a few questions for you. Do you have to lit the machine each time you change the bobbin? would I make the hole big enough to use with the extending table or will I not need it? Do you use the knee attachment? If so, how do you attach it? Thank you
I do not lift the machine to change the bobbin. I am able to access the bobbin ok. It's not great..but it works. I don't know about the extension table and I do NOT use the knee attachment so I'm not sure it would work with this kind of arrangement. Hope that helps. Happy sewing!
I’m thinking that since her machine is set flush(sunken) with the desk/table that she wouldn’t need the extension table. I think that the extension table just gives a bigger space of flat area🤔 Does that make sense?!?!! ❤️😀
Your husband did a wonderful job. It looks like the desk was made for your machine.

I need to get one of them, a husband with a saw! 😁 The table's great, love the handy drawer, good job.
Hahaha! I was thinking the same thing!
@@KumaSews Me too! 😊
I’ve been wondering where you found such a great sewing table. What a great find and thank God for your handy husband!
@@deborahsmith5357 I wish my husband was like that love him but not handy
How thoughtful of your husband, sew sweet. ❤️❤️❤️
I'm sending this video on to my husband to see how to do this for me!
Clever hubby. I had admired your flatbed level with your table. Much easier to sew this way. Great job👍🇦🇺
So nice your husband supports your artistry.
Yes. I’m thankful
I reused those little containers that Deli meat comes in… they fit perfectly into a drawer. One holds small scissors, one for needle packages , etc. handy dandy
What a dear man. Not all husbands would do that.
Thank you for sharing! Great idea and your husband has done a lovely job.
Love it ! He did a great job. And what a great idea
This is a very nice working place for your wonderful ideas and sewing projects you share with us. Thank you!!!
Really nice! Your Juki looks royal sitting there! I have a Juki TL series too…great machine. Thanks for sharing the link!
Could I borrow ur husband & he could build one for me. Right ladies?!?! It's a great sewing desk!

What a great idea. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you Beth! I was having trouble trying to explain it to my husband. Now he can get it done!
Thank you. I was on the right track. Big-4 (Ace Hardware) will cut the wood for me and sell me the hardware.
very impressed! love this idea so much!
Awesome. I’m getting ready to do something like that.
Thanks Beth. That’s fantastic. Your husband did a great job, and it’s oh so practical. You’ve given me ideas. Xx

Husband is very handy to have around!!!! 😀😀‼️🧵
definitely!
Great idea! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for sharing
He did a nice job! The juki is very heavy!
Great table!🙂
Love it! Now I’m looking for a used desk😁
Nice!
Woah... i want one... thank you for sharing...
Beth how do you have or find so many, many different scraps? I don't often see you cut yardage. I love scrappy quilts more than the matchy matchy. Love your daughters quilt.
I have been collecting and sewing and saving tor a long time. I rarely buy yardage because I have so much.😉
Good idea! I will ask my husband do for me. 😉
Thanks for showing us this wonderful table. Can I borrow your husband to make me one???😁
🙂

Hi Beth:
How wide and deep does your desk/table measure?!
Those ladies looking for a handyman😳
Perhaps look to church members, neighbors, ask your friends and coworkers for a referral !!!

Thanks for listening 🤔😝
❤️😀
50” x 25”👌
Thank you so much❤️😀
Very nice❣️
❤❤❤
very nice, I wonder how I could include my knee lifter in this design?
It depends on the desk/table.👌
💗💗💗
How do you change bobbin if it’s a front loader? And what if cables attach too low at side? Any ideas?
The desk was cut away a bit more on both ends to allow room for access.
This is a fabulous idea, job well done, thank you 😀 PS would you please loose the distracting music playing while you are talking, it makes it very difficult to listen to you
Sorry about music.. I can’t fix it once it’s on RUclips. I’ll try to do better next time😉
I would love a table like that my man would not do that for me
How do you change your bobbin? Do you have to lift your machine out each time?
I am able to access the bobbin without moving the machine.👌
That is my question too. Do you reach under the table to access t he bobbin?
Good afternoon, I have a Juki 2010q and a similar table. I have a few questions for you. Do you have to lit the machine each time you change the bobbin? would I make the hole big enough to use with the extending table or will I not need it? Do you use the knee attachment?

👍👍👍👍🤗🤗❤
Can you use the knee lift?
I don't use the knee lift attachment...so I am not sure if it would work with this table or not. 👍
A needle caddy
Good video but music so loud hard to hear but thank you
You’re right. Wish I could adjust...but it’s too late once uploaded. Live and learn I guess. 😉
