The friend of a LQS owner had them for sale at a local Expo. It's wood and clamps on and it is adjustable. You can get your knees under it. I don't have it attached to the SewEzi. I have one of the modular white storage cabinets with an open top. It's fastened to that so I have the top of the cabinet and the SewEzi to lay things out on. It takes the smaller Olfa Mats well, too. The SewEzi is just high enough to slide over the top of the cabinet which keeps the whole shebang steady and from moving or even vibrating.
Handy as it is, I can still miss the wastebasket I have under it when trimming scraps.

I totally relate to this ...

It was this inset at the Pueblo Co expo in April 2015. One of the ladies in the booth had them.[ATTACH=CONFIG]538786[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]538787[/ATTACH]
It was cheaper than Nancy's Notions at the Expo.

My early Christmas gift to myself was a fancy K95 gaming keyboard. My Christmas day gift to myself was a carrying case for it.

I bought a bunch of flannel during Joann's sale a week or so ago (I had an idea about making a polka dot and gingham lap quilt, didn't plan to do the top in flannel but found some of those prints so will give that a try).
I also needed to boost up an Amazon Christmas gift order to cover the shipping so ordered a clear open toed foot and a pack of needles - then my 7 month old walking foot just quit working, the company would only tell me to contact Amazon about it so I did, and Amazon was wonderful about it, they didn't have to offer anything but they refunded me the cost and covered 2 day shipping on a replacement and it got here the same day as the clear foot so as soon as I plan out the flannel top I'm all set to go.
