I was given an old sewing machine table in need of some TLC and I needed a new vanity, so I thought that I would make a “quilted” top, as I am a quilter. I used proofgrade veneer in maple, cherry and walnut attached to 3/4 “ plywood and wrapped a frame of black walnut around it. Finished with tung oil glossy finish.

We got the same singer base many years ago, well before GF, and put a granite slab on it.

You need to swap it out for one of these. Then you can put the granite slab under your GF.

What a great addition to a wonder piece of furniture. Beautiful design. I have two working machines. Two different grandmothers. Need to find the leather “ropes” used to make them work. Gave one to my Daughter-in-law. They were apparently sewing geeks, have more attachments and instructions than I could learn to use. Was keeping because I was told that’s what the Leather workers used because they were indestructible.

If only there were some sort of machine that would let you cut long, perfectly consistent width strips of leather so you could make your own replacements!

That’s cool. There is so much history in restoring things and reusing them- they were workhorses those machines.
