That approach is ok. If your SQLite library is recent enough (I don't
know the exact version), you can use "create table if not exists ...".
For older SQLite releases, you can check like this:
len(con.execute("pragma table_info(?)", ("tablename",)).fetchall()) > 0
or
con.execute("select count(*) from sqlite_master where name=?",
("tablename" ,)).fetchone()
