Hi Soozee:
As you can see, I have a "big-board" like ironing board. It came with a non-removable canvas cover. I wanted to keep it clean and also to hide things like the extra iron, cans of spray starch, etc. underneath it. All I did was make a cover for it and added the skirt (sewn to the cover) to reach the floor. I just thought it helped to corral (and hide) the clutter. I used the same home decorator (a bit heavier cotton than our quilting cottons) everywhere else in the room to give the space some continuity.
I hope that this explanation helps.
