zozee, my cutting table is 37" high. That seems to be okay for me...I wear shoes when I'm going to stand (quilt or cut). But, I'm concerned that the pressing table is too short....it's 32 1/2".......wondering if I should make it as high as the cutting table. I always stand when pressing......so pressers out there....what is the height of your ironing surface? (I can raise it easily with the help of my husband).
