Thanks for the info. I just ordered one from Walmart. Have been thinking about how fix up my old ironing board with a wider top so this comes at a good time!

I also bought the Walmart board and it is great.
But like someone else asked, where can you get a new cover?

Does anyone has one of these old ironing board and would have a pattern for a cover?
My daughter made me a cpver fpr my expandable ironing board, which was bought in 1962. She got 2 regular covers, cut the narrow end off of each & then sewed the 2 pieces together. I used a layer of batting & InsulBrite for padding. It works well.

Yeaaa, more space to hang my things off the clothes line that need a little pressing.

I ordered a new cover online for mine - can't remember where. I have also seen them at Walmart. And I dont think they were too expensive.

Glad you mentioned that. I have been doing that for years. I stopped in at Home depot one day and bought a single ceramic tile about 8x8 and put that on the end of the rounding part. Great stability for the iron. Also I have covered it with a piece of heavy cotton to use it when I fuse.

I purchased this ironing board and love it. I added warm and natural batting for more padding and lower so I can iron and sew with ease!!

There is also a shelf type thing under the board, which I thought I wouldn't want, but now that I have it up, it looks pretty useful.

I am one very pleased quilter. My sister has one of these, and I have looked online at them, but there was one at Wal-Mart...for $39. It fits in the same place my old ironing board did. Now I can't wait to iron, when normally I dread it!!
I've had mine for several years BUT I know I paid almost $100 at Bed Bath & Beyond!! You did good
