I have an ironing board for my cutting table, and a TV tray turned into an ironing board by my sewing machine for when I need to do lots of stop, start pressing like paper piecing. Keep your old ironing board! I have mine folded and proped in the corner. I still use it for cloths, really long pieces of fabric, and I use it for an extencion for my sewing table when I work with a large quilt, drapes for large windws, by my sewing table to drape long strips of fraric in order for strip quilting ect. You will probly find many uses for it.
