I completely understand your situation, as I have arthritis in just about every joint in my body, especially my lower back. I haven't been able to stand and cut fabric for years, as I would tire too easily, but I would use my kitchen table to cut and when we got new dining room furniture I continued to use the table, as it was great for supporting the quilt while quilting. Unfortunately, we could not bring it with us when we downsized, but I'd be interested in how the folding table works out for you. Thanks for sharing the information.
