I use a folding table similar to the ones at most churches. It is 2 ft. X 6 ft. It never gets put away because I sew most every day. My husband made risers for the leg sections so it is a good height for cutting, etc. Once a month a group comes in to quilt and sew, then, we take it off the risers for better height for sewing machines. It was very inexpensive and very convenient.
