Thanks for the information, everyone! Sounds like I can justify this purchase; I've just finished quilting a full-size quilt and will be finishing four quilt tops in the next month or two. If I didn't like quilting I'd just send them out to be finished, but I DO like the quilting part!! The full size I finished a couple weeks ago was a big wresting match.
I was looking at the Tracey's Tables at Albuquerque Quiltweek and may go ahead with that for my birthday in April. :-) It was very sturdy, nice looking, had storage space, and people who have them seem to like them a lot.
