How do I set up a good sewing room?

Machine Height

The bed of your machine should be 25-29 inches high. If your machine sets on top of a table, the table height needs to be lower than if you have a sewing machine cabinet with a recessed area that the machine sets in. The depth of the sewing table should be at least 20 inches.
