I also have one of these multi-purpose tables and use it often in front of the tv for hand stitching the binding. The table can be adjusted for a comfortable fit and holds the weight of the quilt. I only have the part I'm working on in my lap. When I am inevitably interrupted, it is easy to pile the quilt on the table and poke my needle into the table covering so I can find it easily when I get back. Saves looking for a safe place to lay the quilt so it doesn't get sat on by someone or something hairy! Mary Ann
