    Just what I need! I made a separate board to go on a table I have, but I made it only 48" long. When I iron my fabric, I have no room on the board for my iron when I set it down to readjust the fabric. Good thing the table I'm using now is wide enough for an old bread board to set my iron on.

    Great Job. Wish my husband was handy... Enjoy!
    My husband helped me staple the fabric to the top. Otherwise, I did the work!

    How did you make the ironing surface? Is it a hollow core door? I have a BIG board that I pull out when I need it but the darn thing is so heavy! Your door idea sounds like just the thing I need. Thanks for sharing. Love your idea.

    The door is a hollow door and we bolted it to the surface of the cabinet. I then did a layer of tin foil, felt, insul-bright and muslin. Stapled it all underneath!
