Not a review since I don't own this (... yet), but how cool an idea is this product?
If you're anything like me, and don't have a dedicated "craft room," you probably set up and take down your sewing machine (sorry, assuming this is a hobby for you) on an as-needed basis. I set mine up on the kitchen table. Which is fine, except my laundry area is upstairs... with my iron and ironing board.
If you don't sew much, you probably don't realize why this is an issue and probably should skip this whole post, but if you do, or you wish you did, you may realize that sewing is about 40% cutting, 40% pressing, and like 20% stitching. Or maybe that's just what it feels like ;)
So someone's gone and made a product that first of all, stabilizes your machine on the table, and secondly, you can iron on it! My good ol' Singer from the early 90's has a mostly metal body (some plastic facings), so "walking" isn't as big a problem, but a lot of the newer, computerized machines have this problem, so this would help.
The big appeal for me, however, is the pressing! Now I just need one of those cute little craft irons to press my eensy weensy narrow seams.
