Thanks for sharing your story!. Right now I’m planning my sewing room and was wondering if you have had first hand experience with floating tables and/ or the folding kind… and I know this is far fetched but who knows: the ones hanging from the ceiling operated with pulleys.

Anyhow, thanks again and I’ll be glued to your blog since you share very valuable info. You’ve made me a happy “darter”.

Thank you so much. It’s so nice to hear that you enjoy the podcast!
And go ahead and make a pressing table. It’s really easy!

What a fantastic idea! I have a cheap ironing board and it is really unstable. I’ve burned myself a couple of times simply because I put the iron down on the board and then accidentally bumped the board – knocking the iron over and onto my arm. By the way, I love the podcast that you and Tini do. Thanks so much for doing it. You have both inspired me to expand my sewing horizons.

In reply to Kay. Hi Kay. The room is 1.8 m X 4 m ( 6 feet X 13 feet ). The pressing table is 120 cm x 75 cm (4 feet x 2Â½ feet):-) And it fits inside:-) ~ Maria

Maria, i love your pressing table..

>> Itâ€™s also very small: 1.8 m X 4 m ( 6 feet X 13 feet ).
Could it be possible that something’s wrong with measurement ???

6 ft by 13 ft is reallly long..and can’t possibly fit in a room that’s 1.80 m x 4 m small. (5.9ft x 13ft) esp, when the table is across the width of the room..

I have seen those table legs at the IKEA in College Park MD USA and thought they looked like a great idea. I think now that I’m going to try making a table of my own like this one.

I have a table that I use for cutting, but it’s too low and I usually end up using the dining room one because it is a bit higher (but still not perfect). I’m very jealous of yours.
