A sewing machine cabinet in which a sewing machine 43 can be placed in operable position, and the cabinet has as work table 17 movable between an upper position level with the bed of the machine and a lower position giving free access to the cylinder bed 44 of the machine. Support arms 54, 56, 62, 63 on the sides of the cabinet support brackets 48, 49 that carry the work table 17 in a path that moves vertically between the upper and lower positions without moving transversely to one side. Leaves 23, 24 can be attached to the ends of the work table 17 to move up and downward so as always to be at the same level as the work table to provide extra space for the work at the most convenient level. The work table 17 can be moved up and down by a hand lever 92 or foot lever 31 with a latch 37 to engage the lever to hold the work table in its upper position. A gravity operated member 85 can fall into place against a shelf 86 to hold the work table 17 in its upper position and to prevent inadvertent descent if the latch 37 that controls the lever is released at the wrong time.
