Hi Jan,

You can download a pattern from the "FREE PATTERNS" here at QIAD. El uses it in one of her videos.

Here are a few more websites to look at:

I had looked at so many of the sewing talbes out there and did not like the idea that the majority were not made of real wood and were so over priced.
My DH recently completed my sewing table and I am now so organized.
I drew the design and had him construct, it is complete with 4 drawers, 6 doors that lead to ample storage space, and the drop down for the machine. We bought plexiglass at the lumber yard and cut it ousrselves, which was very cost effective, especially compared to the inserts that I had priced!
So as you can see if you know someone that is handy in these areas and has all the tools, the possibilities are unlimited.
Good luck with your search.
Debbie

The SewEZ table is great. It's sturdy, no wobbling and it's portable. Also look at this one: It started out as a computer table from Staples/Office Depot.

Did anyone notice the Salem folding square ruler in the pics? I never saw one like that before. I googled it and found this:

First attempt to post pic here, hope this works. I wanted to share the sewing cabinet I talked about earlier. It is really helpful to have the space and organization.
Thanks for looking!
