DIY: Sink your own sewing machine | save money

Alyssa of Measured and Slow wanted less drag when free-motion quilting because it fosters good quality stitching. The solution is having your sewing machine flush with the table top. Since store-bought sunken sewing tables are pricey, she decided to make one.

She starts with a pine table she picked up at IKEA. With lots of great photos of the process, she shows you step-by-step how to do it.
