I got the most fantastic early Mothers Day present this week from Jen. She ordered me a great sewing table and it was delivered. I was looking at the book in my livingroom for a couple of days reading and rereading my instructions. Last night first off Jen and Mike brought me dinner. Mike had cooked out and we had great pork chops and some wonderful rice. Then we started to watch the movie Alvin and the Chipmonks at which point Mike went home. That left Jen and I and out came the table pieces. It's always easier with someone else to put something together and in no time flat Jen had the table assembled. It's beautiful. I've been sewing for the past two years on one of those smaller white hard plastic folding tables and it did work fine but it was high. Now in a couple of weeks our friends Michelle and Louie are going to come and Louie the sweetie he is will recess my machine down into my new table. For the first time ever I'll be able to use my knee lift. So here's a few pictures of what we did last night. I even had to try out the new table so I made a small coiled bowl to set my free standing thread holder in so as not to scratch the surface. That went together in under and hour.
