Complete how to make a drop leaf table, design to completion, from The Quilt Ladies.
I’m on the third go of doing my office/art room over and I think this time, I got it ! ! From the painted walls, my wonderful studio table and NOW my drop leaf table ! ! Of course lots of drawings and lots of research….I love project research ! Finished table is here and I love it.
With all the research done and three different options, I talk with Husband, it’s become an almost presentation. You know…..he’s the builder and THANK goodness he doesn’t roll his eyes at me anymore ! !
That being said, doesn’t mean he’s not going to change things a bit. First idea was just to purchase a 1950″s drop leaf, cut, fix to wall, he wanted nothing of that. I had though 2″ x 2″ legs and he wanted it to match my studio table, easy give. I wanted shelves, to get EVERYTHING off the floor in this room. Well…just about everything. My plans
The leaf legs out of 1 x 4
All put together and ready for paint
With drying time being an issue here in Florida, I moved the table into the house for painting.
Top, leaf and two shelves
Assembly was in it’s place, it’s very heavy
Added legs on first, hinges on top and bottom of each. A piano hinge was used for the drop leaf and fitted over the legs and was fasten down from underneath.
Letting it cure for a bit and I will show it all soon. First question…..YES, you can do both sides. I didn’t want that, I just want to put I sewing machine on the top and pull it out when I need it. NEXT, I would like a fireplace in the living room….the planning has already began.

Summer Quilt Planning starts with a NEW Quilt Pattern. After you have the quilt pattern it’s all about the fabric. I always say, purchase ONLY what you LIKE, what you can afford and ALWAYS 100% cotton. “I” and I repeat, “I” like to wash, dry and iron my fabrics, BEFORE I start cutting them. This is MY Quilt, “PUT on Some RED Lipstick and Let’s Quilt”
When I purchase fabric and have NO idea what I will be making with it, I always purchase 2 to 3 yards. These red and white’s are all from my fabric closet and some are getting old, as long as the cotton is still tight, it’s just fine to work with.
Whenever possible I like to chain piece and this is the start of my piecing of squares.
Take a Moment and Stop Over and See my Quilt Ladies Quilt Pattern Shop, on Etsy. Etsy is 100% safe and always open. My quilt patterns are all reasonable priced, so all can afford them.
I love quilt patterns, changing and rearranging the pieces into something new makes me happy. Sharing them is one of my favorites too. Today’s finished quilt block is eight inches by eight inches. Please don’t let the size overwhelm you, the quilt squares are cut one at a half and the triangles are two and a half, nothing hard to do.(cut 2 7/8″)
You asked and it’s taken me a bit, but it’s done and ready for you to purchase. Each Love Knot quilt block is eleven by eleven inches. You will need four quilt blocks to finished the quilt as shown in the pattern. Read all the details.
I am so very proud of this quilt pattern, it’s on my Etsy Shop, you purchase, Love Knot Quilt Pattern, it’s to you in moments as a PDF download. 100% safe, that’s why it’s only on Etsy.
It’s been a crazy April and I think with all the follow ups and questions, I made you think too. I am learned, beginning to understand and trying very hard to not leave myself behind. My article started a conversation, which I am still not sure of but it’s started. Also, books and quilt patterns, my favorites.
I have linked this book and I do get a couple of cents if you clink here, but get it anyplace. But, please do get it.
Then this past Tuesday this arrived, I had ordered it MONTHS ago right after hearing about it. What a joy of a book !
This is one of my use it up log cabin quilt blocks, it’s ten inches by ten inches and I love that it’s both 1 1/2″ strips and 2 1/2″ strips. The quilt block is square but I don’t know how I took this picture??? I think from the side a bit, as I didn’t want to get up from my chair….maybe ! See my quilt pattern shop
