Koala Studios • Sewing Cabinet
The Eclipse unfolds into a generous L-shaped sewing station with front, back, and right leaf extensions, giving you the depth and support you need for quilting, garment sewing, and embroidery while still closing down to a compact cabinet when you’re done.
A built-in 3-position hydraulic lift lets you move your machine from storage, to flat-bed, to free-arm height with a simple touch. Inside, removable bins, trays, and thread organizers keep fabric, notions, and tools visible and within reach, so you spend less time searching and more time sewing.
Factory-assembled construction, rounded edges, and smooth, easy-roll locking casters make the Eclipse both sturdy in use and easy to reposition in your sewing room.
Perfect as a primary sewing station or as a dedicated home for a second machine or serger.
