Machine Accessories / Re: Janome HD2200 Extension Table

Mr Acorn made me one from a spare piece of kitchen worktop.



It has sections of wooden curtain pole for legs, and is extremely heavy - which is good when it's in place, less so when it needs moving!  The front edge - which you can't see in the pictures - is curved, which lets the fabric move fairly easily, and there is a very slight slope from back to front, so that it lines up with my machine (other machines may not need this).


I lined the inset bit, where the bed of the machine sits, with felt, to protect it.

The original thread is here.

Wow that's great thank you Acorn. I'm sure I have an offcut of kitchen worktop in the garage somewhere?

Thank you both for the suggestions, I think I am going to have a go at making one. I am sure there must be something hiding in my garage that I can repurpose.

Does anyone know where I can get an extension table for my HD2200. The only one that I have found so far was made to order at £129.00!!
Thank you

Thank you all for such a warm welcome. I look forward to reading & learning so much from you all. Just hope that I have some time left to actually do some sewing as well.

Thank you for letting me join your sewing forum. I have only started sewing in the last 2 years, so have much to learn. I've recently discovered the joy of making Patchwork quilts - but one question. Why is the Patchwork & quilting section referred to as the dark side? Bit concerned that I should have perhaps avoided patchwork in my sewing!!
