don't you need some of that heat resistant silver fabric underneath to keep from warping the table with the moisture?
Cheryl
Yep i made myself the same thing from a wooden tv tray, covered it in batting & fabric that matchs my ironing board, very handy to keep next to the sewing machine.

Thinsulate helps, but the table will not warp if you first drill a few holes in it for steam to escape, then layer the batting and fabric over it. I made a large ironing board cover once with fabric cut to shape, and elastic, - made it like a large, but tight, shower cap & stretched it over the board. I added children's glove clips across the bottom to pull it tightly.
