:D Oh,Barb,yes to the chocolate! A bowl of Dove wrapped treats would be great! I have the ironing board cover with the grid. I got it on sale/or with a coupon,don't remember which so it was a deal. It has helped a lot. Use your JoAnn or Hancock coupons to get it. It is worth it. Your idea for the flannel board,using the vinyl tablecloth is great!
Happy quilting,
