Cutting Out

[RumbaRue]

I have one of those metal folding tables about 6 foot long, all I have to do is set it up when I need it, fold it up and put it away when I don't.
I picked it up on sale for $20.00 at Long's Drugstores. Check your ads in the
Sunday papers and such, you're bound to find them at a decent price.

I actually have two of them, but one is used for the back area of our group's tent at events.

I use my coffee table... hey its a big table... even though my back is killing me afterwards it works

or I go to my sisters house she has alot of room and she only has a cat.. But I have the added help of my 3 year old nephew and my 17 month old. They make even the biggest dog look like a pomerain

I use my nephew as a fabric weight, I park him in the middle of the fabric, give him my measuring tape and tell him to be Handy Manny ( it works) then Little Bit sits with him. Great on the bigger stuff not so swell on the little stuff, but that stuff I can do at home.

... a humongous cutting mat--it's something like 36 X 60, and I've made a cutting table out of an old hollow-core door to put in on, but I've only used it once.  It was nice, just that space is at a premium in my house, and my nice cutting table is being used...as a storage table of sorts...but the floor, that's all open space!

I've noticed that my floor is clean more often than my sewing table, so I'll put my cutting mat on the floor and work there... but I store the cutting mat upright behind the sofa when I need to use the kitchen/sewing table for, you know, meals & such.  It's pretty handy to just slide it out of there and plop it on the floor.
