Ultimately, I'll make a big board type attachment but for space purposes need a regular board that can be folded up.

I've seen the above-mentioned product - 18" wide - and wonder if anyone has used them. The Fibertech material is not what I'm accustomed to so I'm wondering if anybody has any thoughts on how well it works for steam ironing and how durable it is. It gets very good reviews on Amazon but not sure how well it works for quilters.

Thanks in advance,
Cathy
