My lovely new sewing table

On the 25th March my sister, my niece, Mike and I went to the Sewing Exhibition at the NEC.  It was a good exhibition this year, much bigger and better than in previous years we all thought.  Of course we all spent a lot on fabrics, threads, beads and a ... TABLE!

After struggling for years cutting out in my small sewing room, I decided it was time just to have a look at the Horn Cutting Out Table.  Mike said if it was going to help do the job and make my life easier,  I should have it and he treated me to it and its wonderful.

It only arrived last Wednesday and already it has been used a lot, how ever did I manage before.  It is 150cm x 100cm, which makes it great for cutting out especially when fabric has to be flat to help match checks.  I can get all the way around the table if I pull it out from the wall, the casters it is on makes moving it so easy.  Then when I've finished cutting out I can lower it and sit and work at it using the same chair I sit at for my computer, it can be put to the perfect height you need for the job you are doing. When I need space to move about or have clients in my sewing room, I can tip it up and push it up against the wall to give me room to work.  Everything in the sewing room is great just now.
