I also made my own BIG BOARD. Saw one in a quilting mag many years ago for $50. I made mine 20" X 48" out of plywood, put some sort of felt batting and a cover on it. I made it with guides on the under side to the size of my ironing board so it doesn't move. It can be lifted off very easy. I wish I had made it a little bigger. Hope this helps.

I also put my big board on my very large dining room table to iron really big quilts.
