    I also utilized 2 of these folding tables. By placing them together you can lay out your backing, batting and top for pinning or basting standing up. No more knee/back breaking by having to do this on the floor in order to have enough working space. You can also use this setup with a really large cutting mat making that job easier as well. If you don't have adjustable legs there are leg lifters at the hardware stores that are used for raising beds, etc. and they are reasonably priced. Use these for lifting the table to a more comfortable cutting/basting level.
