I love my mobile kitchen island. Purchased in 2000 for use as an island (in former house) it became a corner cabinet on wheels in the next house until we remodeled the kitchen . Then upstairs for my sewing-quilting room. Best investment ever for $499.00! Now there are lots of mobile island options on the market. My model is also still available. It has a drop side to it. The top is the perfect size for the 24 x 36 cutting mat.

I have a Gidget table. They also custom fit the table to the sewing machine model. I love it! As for tables, I have a 2x4' just beside my sewing table, great for all the small stuff while sewing and I use a 4x6 folding leg table for cutting, and piecing large sections. It moves around easily when I need it to.[ATTACH=CONFIG]464163[/ATTACH]

I recently purchased a table from Kangaroo, called the tasmanian. My Viking diamond fits down in it. The insert makes it flat for free motion. It has a handle that turns to raise the whole thing for cutting fabric on. The machine raises when it needs to be in embroidery mode. I have pieced and FMQ on it. Have not used the other functions...yet. At this point I love it. It is smaller then the long table I was using from SAMs so it fits better. I think if I was doing a very large quilt I would put a table to the side or back for more room. I think the measurements of it are 40 x60.
I looked up your table and it's awesome.
