Usually I prefer to have a regular ironing board set up across the room from my work area so that I have to get up and stretch every so often. But since I started working on my double wedding ring quilt there are so many seams that have to be pressed before I can do the next one on the arc that I created a little ironing board to have right beside me.

I took a little wooden fold up TV dinner table, put a layer of cardboard from a box on top threw a towel on that and then an old piece of fabric from some long ago sewing project is over that. To hold it all together I put a large elastic over each end. Voila.. instant sewing table that sits right beside me and doesn't interfere with my work space at all. When I need to put it away I just fold it up as usual and it can go almost anywhere out of the way. It works great.
