An unplanned post but when things happen
and being a good blogger
the camera came out to follow progress.
This was my sewing machine a couple of hours ago.
Before a mix of 1 male, Power tools and a Facebook link by
Retromummy a few weeks ago came into play.
Let me just add that the "1 Male and Power tools"
don't play very often so this was a bit risky!
Fingers crossed this works because a table with a hole cut in
it really is of no use if it doesn't!
"Look Mummy, Daddy made a hole"
Let's not discuss what was being said here :)
Fingers Crossed
YAY .... SUCCESS
Now just the right height for quilting, less stress on
my shoulders and so much more surface space
than the silly Janome extension table that moved around.
Thank you Glenn, you're a keeper :)
Oh and thank you for the new header also xx
Hugs, Sharon

ReplyDeleteGreat job Glenn. You'd better watch out. There maybe some orders heading your way! LOL!
ReplyDeleteFabulous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great husband! Please pass along my compliments on a job well done! Isn't it great when the man of the house is able and willing to do jobs like this? (It's just one less thing that *you* would need to do!).
ReplyDeleteMy own Dear Husband had the reverse project: he had to make a filler piece because my current Janome had a smaller footprint than my previous Singer. But, he did it and it's wonderful. :-)
Fantastic. The new table is great.
ReplyDeleteFabulous idea. Well done Glenn....I hope she rewarded you!
ReplyDeleteExcellent, well done Glenn,are you planning a trip to England any time soon.
ReplyDeleteXx
Yep - definitely a keeper! What a great way to start the new year. And I love your new blog header - not that you are a fan of Bonny and Camille at all!
ReplyDeleteThat is fantastic! I am going to show my hubby...but I probably need to get a different table as I am using my grandparents old dining table which is antique!
ReplyDeleteWhat a handy man he is to have around! Your new header looks great too!
ReplyDeleteFantastic Sharon! I hope Glenn was saying - look at the great job I've done, you can sew even more now! He's very handy to have around. Tracee xx
ReplyDeleteAwesomeness :D Quilt hubbies can be the best.
ReplyDeleteGlenn did good! You are really going to love using your new customized table. No more stiff necks or shoulder pain... bliss! You'll be able to stitch faster and for longer now ;o)
ReplyDeleteGlen is a legend, what a great makeover!! X

Fantastic! You will enjoy this I'm sure! How scary was it putting that initial hole in the table?!
ReplyDeleteOh, good for you! You will love that. My DH did that for me a few years back. I don't know how I ever got along without it all those years.
ReplyDeletePerfect...what a guy!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYay Glen ! There will be no stopping you now!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad it worked well for you guys! Thanks for linking up! :)
