Hey guys I just wanted to share this trick with you to help stay organized and save time. I like to add a set of plastic drawers to the bottom of my table. I keep my extra feet , bobbins, needle, pencils , Etc inside of the drawers. It save a lot of time having it all right there with you. Its muck better than the single drawer that comes with most tables

Here is a set of drawers that will work if you want to do this. https://amzn.to/2NH7FEe

What tricks do you guys do to save time and stay organized??

I have a 12x12 peg board right on the wall beside my sewing table. It has my needle nose, trim scissors, marking pencils, small ruler, bobbins and a small thing of oil all within reach.

This is one of the first things I went looking for with my new table and no joy. What I was looking for, and thought would be easy to find, was a set of three 8" wide drawers maybe 3" deep and a foot long.

Seems like such an obvious thing! Thanks, @John, for the link; I'll look in that direction.

Looks just like a girls nick knack box. Great idea, I will do it. I took a 2"x 2" x 3' board and put dowels in it to hold my thread, my machine id a couple of feet away from it, I can change colors without having to move them from the stand on the machine.
