Sewing Tables Galore

For the serious seamstress or the part-time seamstress a sewing table is a necessity. A sewing table can mean two things, and both are necessities. The first is a desk/table which has drawers and storage spaces for sewing notions, threads, materials, and the incredible miscellany that comes with sewing, on which your sewing machine sits or is installed. The other is a table which has enough space and flat surface to layout your material and pattern for pinning and cutting. We will discuss each as a feature of a well stocked and well furnished, sewing room.

Sewing Tables Advantages and Needs

It used to be that sewing tables were a slightly re-tooled kids school desk, and were only made along the same lines, and seldom with a place to inset your sewing machine. New manufactures have entered the field and the choice of a sewing table on which to place your sewing machine has exploded. The sewing tables are the right height to sew, so no more hunching over the sewing machine trying to see what you are sewing or having it so high your arms are in a difficult and uncomfortable position whenever you try to sew. These are often called a sewing machine table, and have a place to which a sewing machine can be attached, and the advantages are many.

The first advantage is the drawers in the new choices of sewing table are much better sectioned and sized for sewing notions and threads. This is wonderful, because I know my threads keep multiplying while I’m not looking. I swear I didn’t have that many a few days ago and I haven’t been to the store, I’m sure it’s a conspiracy. All that joking aside, many people are quite serious about their sewing, even if they are hobby sewing. The sewing table helps organize the myriad of items that I keep on hand. There is no real benefit in throwing away the thread which is left over from a sewing project. You made need to make a fix to it down the line and that color may not still be available, but how to keep it organized.

If you cannot keep all the notions and thread organized they are not of much use. Its hard to spend tons of time digging through boxes of threads trying to find what you need. The sewing table can help with this organization problem, and the items you need are close at hand where you need it when you next sit down to sew.

The other sewing table, the cut-out and pinning table, has also become available, with a higher table top, which means you are bent over a too low table while your lower back and thighs scream. This make sewing much more enjoyable, less stressful to you physically and mentally.
