Yep i made myself the same thing from a wooden tv tray, covered it in batting & fabric that matchs my ironing board, very handy to keep next to the sewing machine.

I saw the cats eye-balling the table. Mine would assume this is another bed for her to use.

don't you need some of that heat resistant silver fabric underneath to keep from warping the table with the moisture?

Thinsulate helps, but the table will not warp if you first drill a few holes in it for steam to escape, then layer the batting and fabric over it. I made a large ironing board cover once with fabric cut to shape, and elastic, - made it like a large, but tight, shower cap & stretched it over the board. I added children's glove clips across the bottom to pull it tightly.

What a great idea....thanks for sharing with us :thumbup:

i've got one of those. i wonder if i could quilt a cover to fit the top and then elastic it so it would be removable and wash it?

Agree ! A very cool idea !!

I have these trays but not sure my DH would like it if one came up missing. lol.. If I had room in my little space I would definetly make on tho.

Great idea, i will making one for my sewing room which is my favorite room.
