a) for stability
b) to put a piece of fabric between the two plastic layers (It eleminates glare).
I have put 7.5'' legs underneath it. Put on my table, it has a very comfortable height and I can regulate the light I put underneath it (It has three small bulbs).
This worked out quite well.
Starting to quilt has done this to me: I keep on making things myself...
It's fun!
