Abstract: This disclosure relates to cabinets and in particular to a cabinet which is adapted for use in performing textile operation in combination with a sewing machine having both flat bed and cylinder bed working capabilities. The cabinet may be opened from a stored position, in which the sewing machine is stored out of sight and the cabinet then has the appearance of a styled table or cabinet, to a first position wherein the work bed of the sewing machine is contiguous with a working surface of the cabinet, to a second position wherein the work bed of the sewing machine is in an elevated position relative to the aforementioned cabinet working surface to permit cylinder bed operation on the sewing machine and to a third position wherein a cutting board work area may be folded out from the cabinet to an elevation for permitting an operator to perform cutting operations on a material while in an operator standing position.

Abstract: A cabinet and work table for a sewing machine having a convertible work supporting bed capable of conversion from a flat work supporting bed to a cylinder bed. The cabinet work supporting surface is divided into two parts, a fixed rear work supporting surface and a laterally shiftable front work supporting surface. The sewing machine is supported in the cabinet with the flat work supporting bed forwardly of, co-planar and contiguous with the fixed work supporting surface. The shiftable work supporting surface of the cabinet is laterally shiftable from a position co-planar with the fixed work supporting surface of the cabinet and the flat work supporting bed of the sewing machine to a position subjacent the flat work supporting bed of the sewing machine and the fixed work supporting surface of the cabinet whereupon the flat bed may be converted to cylinder bed use.
