What is the furniture I need for my sewing room? A Sewing machine table
What are the furniture I want for my sewing machine room ? A big drop in Sewing machine table, A table for my laptop and printer, a cutting table with large storage underneath, an ironing table and a cabinet with lots of storage
What we need and what we want and what we get are almost always poles apart. Isn’t life unfair ?. My poor little sewing machine delegated to a corner table really need a bigger table. My cutting table is an ordinary table that has got some height after I slipped cut pieces of PVC pipes under the legs to elevate them so that I don’t strain my back. Then of course there is my multipurpose dining table.
I am a little handy with power tools ( I mean, I have them) and have made a bookshelf and a table (slightly imperfectly) before. A big Ana white fan here. With that arrogance, I have started searching for some plans for DIY sewing desks/cutting tables / pressing tables around the net for perfect sewing room tables. These girls do give me a complex with their perfectly made sewing room furniture. Here are the 15 I found I want (all of them).
DIY Sewing Table Plans
