My husband watched this video then made me an ironing board just like it I love it! Thanks!!
I can't believe it's been 6 years since you made these! How time flys! 💖🌞🌵😷
I like to use 100% cotton ticking with the stripes, it just gives me something to help line up seams. Plus it is so tightly wove it's easy to pull taught when stretching it over the absorbent low loft padding.
Nice idea for using stripes. Ticking has good body and is wide! Thanks
I just made an ironing board and l love how you cut out the corners. To the back I added a kitchen cabinet self grip lining so the board doesn’t move
Excellent idea!
I was just at a Habitat for Humanity, Restore, looking for door, actually. They have a corner for odd shelf boards, cabinet doors , countertops. Grabbed a piece of plywood, 40X40 , with a Formica finish on top side. Perfect ! ! $1, seriously, $1 LOVE that store! Anyway, with a $1 king sheet from thrift store, folded couple times for thickness, and grandson with staple gun, I have a perfect ironing surface.
Fire Mountain Gems! I get my beads and things from them for rosaries I make! I just love that I found your site by chance, and I am thoroughly enjoying your videos!
It's so cute and touching to see this vibrant couple who share a passion for this wonderful world of fabric!
Hello Matt, thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. I get such a kick out of you! I didn't have a nice piece of plywood so I used a piece of "oriented strand" board. It wasn't as smooth as plywood so I used a double layer of batting and it worked out just fine. I love this ironing board!! Thank you. Say "Hi" to Donna and all the people who make everything at Jordan Fabrics possible. Jen in NY
I did that and added a heat resistant layer, 1/2 " twill tape for handles on all 4 sides and to trim the edges on the wood side. Worked great. So, the layering was wood, batting heat fabric then a heavy cotton fabric with the trim and 4 handles.
Clever. How did you attach the handles?
Wow, Fire Mountain Gems is where I bought my Beading supplies. I absolutely love the store.
Thank you so much for this fabulous idea. My husband and I made one and then a friend of mine put it on legs to save my table space. I just love it! I enjoy and use all of your videos to learn and improve my quilting. Really appreciate all you at Jordan Fabrics do for us, you are so generous.
I made one of these years ago to put on top of my regular ironing board so I had a bigger, more square ironing surface. I put 1x1 stops on the underside at the front, back and sides of the board so it wouldn't slide off my ironing board. If I needed my regular iron board I would just lift off the big one I made and replace it when I was done. All quilters need this big board.
Exactly what my husband made for me! Quilters think alike
These are great table top boards. My husband has made several long ones for me (and friends). We all love ours. I have him make them 22"wide x 60" long. I use Warm n Natural batting. I don't want any polyester in it because it melts. We usually set these long ones on top of our regular ironing boards and sometimes add stays to the underneath side to keep them from sliding off the ironing board. Thanks for the video.
My daughter and I have recently taken up quilting. After watching your video, we both made an ironing board yesterday. We love them! So easy. We covered ours with duck cloth, kind of a cross between canvas and cotton. It was perfect!
Great fabric choice. Easy to follow instructions. I learn so much from your videos. Who needs to attend those quilt retreats when we've got you!
Nancy Johnson have you ever actually attended a quilting retreat? I have and it's a great time to enjoy like minded people like yourself.
I made this. It was quick and easy. Makes ironing soo much easier. I drew a line on it with a straight edge so I can iron my blocks straight.
Great idea adding a straight edge. I wonder if adding one perpendicular line intersecting with the straight edge would be of benefit.
What a great idea!
I'm gonna do that to mine lol
I just thought I'd add that that would be great for strip units. I have been wanting to make a quilt using strip tubes but I havent yet lol
Great idea. What did you use to mark the line?

Thank you for the tutorial! I made mine today on the kitchen floor! Home Depot had precut 24 x 48". So that's what I used.
I've watched this video several times, searched high and low until I found the perfect fabric, and added Bo-Nash Ironslide 2000 tabletop cover, 29 x 65in, on top of the two layers of batting. It's so beautiful and the perfect addition to my new quilt studio! Thank you, thank you! I love all of your videos! I wish I could have attached my pic!
HI Matt, I wanted to let you know I made one of these after watching you. It's not as high because our store sold plywood in pieces and so I got one 48x36. I also put to much batting in it but I didn't want to take it apart after it was together. Thank you for your help in showing how to do this.
I made one of these ironing boards-great video! I don't have space for a big table, so I am using a Home Depot island that is perfect for my first-class ironing station. I couldn't find 54" fabric that I liked, so I used 108" backing fabric. Having this big an ironing surface is a game changer! Thanks Matt!!!
Thank you!! I was actually quite curious about your ironing board as I have watched countless videos.
I'm definitely going to have make one!!
Yes, I have ordered product from Fire MT Gems. Seems like Grants Pass, OR is a magnet for burgeoning entrepreneurs and/or couples who have vision! Congratulations to both companies.
What I appreciate is that both couples followed their *bliss* , listened to each other, nurtured each other's skills and talents--and, made these phenomenal companies as a result!
Thanks for another great video! It was fun seeing parts of your town and the mountains, too!
Thank you for the video! I have been envying your ironing board and have not been able to find something like that. I wasn’t sure how to make one and when I found your video I was ecstatic! Thank you!! Excited to make one of my own 💖💖
THANK YOU! I'm watching this today and I just asked on another video last night how did you make it!! Crazy!! Thanks I'm setting up my sewing corner in my work shop in the spring! I have a soapmaking corner, stone cutting, and now my sewing spot!
My husband and I are in the process of making an big ironing board. So I really appreciated this video.
Matt you ironing board is brilliant. I will definitely show this to my husband as a suggestion 😊 thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this! I built mine this weekend and got to test it out finally. It's so much better than a regular ironing board! My quilt blocks have never been so happy!
I just made mine with a twist. Put it on a frame with cubby holes to store fabric and other stuff. Thanks for the great tutitorial!!
I would like to see a picture of this.
You two are very lucky to have one another you compliment one another,awesome job
Thanks for sharing this DIY tutorial. I searched through several videos and your video is the most straight forward.
I made myself Matt’s ironing board and it is absolutely awesome for quilting and garment sewing!! Thank you Matt and Donna for the wonderful tutorials and tours. I admire how you cut the precuts. And yes - the electric staple gun is worth the investment. 😊👌🏽
Thank you so much for this video. My husband and I made this ironing board yesterday and I could not be more pleased with it! Making it was as straightforward as the video, and the tips helped us avoid a bunch of pitfalls.
I never thought about stapling it to the board. I've done smaller ones and just made a slip on cover. Thanks for this idea, I like it much better!
I have been getting Fire Mountain news for so long I can’t remember. Occasionally I order. thanks for pointing it out!
I just found this channel, and I am enjoy it so much; and I don't even quilt! What a talented family! Congrats on your success!
Great tutorial. Your fabric choice is perfect. Thank you.
Clear instructions, thanks for this helpful tutorial.
I add a layer of heavy duty aluminum foil between the wood and the batting. it heats up as you press, and gives you heat from both sides.
It also keeps the moisture from being absorbed by the wood. Thus, not warping the plywood.
The Busy Needle think I’ll do that too, thanks for the tip
I need a bigger ironing board, so my next project is to make one. I’ll add foil to it. Thanks for suggestion
A great suggestion.
I don't think I want that for my board. I work in a very, very tight space that doubles as a place for me to press, and then cut with a mat on top. At times, I have to wait until the board cools down, because when I put my Olfa mat on top, it sweats and gets damp. I have a little fan that I point down on it to hasten cooling of the surface when I am pressing, cutting.
Thanks for taking time out of your day to do this tutorial. I really enjoy all of your tutorials -- even the behind the scene ones Matt does.
Thanks so much, Matt. You did a brilliant job! That''s lovely KF prints - looks like Home decorator fabric. Perfect choice..;)
I like your pressing table. I did something different. I used a hollow inside door, drilled random holes on the bottom side to help prevent warping. I used a heavy canvas to cover the upholstery batting. We built a shelving unit underneath. I have had it since 2009 and still love it.
This is very helpful. I've been wanting to make one for some time. I have a old type ironing board, but my sewing room is small so I think this will work great to lay on one end of my cutting table my husband made me. Thank you.
I was just in your store last week while visiting my son in Oregon. Nice place! and friendly staff. Thank you!
I am going to visit next summer ....Covid permitting
Working on my 2nd big ironing board, made two 16 inch square. Appreciate you and Donna, excellent videos.
Thank you so much for making this video. My husband and I just made two of these. We cut up an old dog leash and made handles and put one on the long side and one on the short side for portability. Works GREAT!!
Good idea 💡
just wondering if you have any updated tips/tricks for this ironing board - like the wood warping from moisture, ironing board special fabric, etc. Love love love Jordan Fabric videos. Thanks so much
I just came across your tutorials a few days ago.. been watching ever since... I really like your videos.. thanks for sharing all this information..
good job there Matt. What ya going to do recover your old one for the new shop? I suppose there will be more than one station. Make a smaller one for Donna to place closer to her machine, hint hint Love watching you both.
Thanks, watched many videos on portable ironing boards and love yours the best thus far. Gonna have my husband make me one too!!😊
I made my own IRONING BOARD like Matts. I think i have a very cool ironing board!!!!
Excellent tutorial Matt! Nice fabric choice!
Yeay! Another sewing project for my room. I need a good ironing board that is large enough to iron one huge piece and it saves so much time when sewing and cutting.
WORK OF ART PUT IT ON THE WALL , NICE JOB
Is it possible to do videos on things other than quilts and table runners eg.bags and such. I find your attention to detail has helped me tremendously. Like finger pressing everything I do now. That alone makes a huge difference. Thanks to you both for the great videos. Nice ride along too, very pretty place you live.

Exactly what I need to do again. First one I made to small. Will go to your size this time. Thanks for posting.
Wish I would have done the corners on mine like you did LOL Thanks for sharing
Great video Matt (and photographer son). Love the trip to Home Depot; nice scenery out there. This is an excellent, easy, and economical ironing board; really love it.
Good job !!!!! I made myself a small one for small projects,,,, thank you Matt !!! You made it easy for me,,,,
I just recently re-did my 48 x 30 ironing board; used a nice piece of plywood & a sturdy canvas type fabric from IKEA; worked great. Love the large surface.
I just made my ironing surface 2 days ago and WOW it was easy! Instead of cutting the corners out, I mitered them. The BEST part was using my husband's staple gun that works on the compressor! I wanted to add staples to EVERYTHING I saw, but the gun ran out of staples. Since my husband was in the house and I was in my sewing room in the barn, I decided I had enough staples in my board. I love this board. Thanks to Matt, I'm now able to build things!
Awesome Matt. Thanks for sharing!!!
We received the fabric I ordered from Jordan Fabrics in the mail late today and it is a heavier fabric as Matt described. My husband made my iron board this evening. It turned out really well. I am very pleased with it. I would post a pic to Instagram if I knew how. I have a photo of it on my iPhone but am at a loss as to how to get it to the Jordan Fabrics Instagram feed, or mine for that matter. I am very pleased with the outcome and I look forward to putting it to good use. Thank you, Matt, for the great instructional video. Couldn't have done it without you.
We would love to see a picture! You can watch our video on How to Enter the Instagram Quilt Giveaway for directions on how to add a photo to Instagram, or you can email us the picture and we can add it to our Facebook page.
I managed to get entered via Instagram for your quilt giveaway, but couldn't get the picture of my ironing board to go through. What is the email address that I should use and I will try and get it sent pronto? The iron board looks great in our green sun room. Thank you again.
I emailed two pics to info@jordanfabrics.com. I hope that is where you are able to locate them. Please let me know if you have any problems. I just last week deactivated my FB page. So, I won't be able to take a look at your FB feed. I couldn't be more pleased with my sun room/sewing room. The ironing board has made all the difference and is the finishing touch that was needed. Thank you again.
I would be tempted to raise the whole board up on rubber feet in the corners and drill holes all over the board to allow the batting to air out and dry. I think the fabric is very pretty and would make a boring chore more entertaining. I love this project.
I wonder if a peg board would work or if it’s too thin.
I made mine board yoday. Great suggestion. Thank you for the video. I love your channel. I have learned so much. Have a great day!
Hi Matt.
I finally got to making the ironing board and it turned out great. I now have room to iron and lay my blocks down with plenty of room. Thanks for the video.
I’m going to finely make one of theses wonderful ironing boards today ... I’ll post pictures latter !
That was so wonderful of you to give Fire mountain Gems a big shout out.
Thank you for sharing this with us today. I want a big ironing board, and you just did what I was thinking about. Great job. Happy Holidays.😊❤.
I made my ironing board by your instructions. It is fantastic!!! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Matt!
Thank you for this tutorial I am going to make my own ironing board now. I will be able to iron larger items such as quilts without so much trouble.
Omw right!
Today my husband and I went on a shopping trip for supplies for a ironing board. We didn’t make it as large as your . But it is amazing how it turned out and I love the fabric of birds and butterflies I found. Thanks for your wonderful tutorial. It’s well worth the effort to make. Love it!
Nicely done.☺
Thank you Matt great job.
I made one also with a scrap from a cabinet shop and a canvas fabric top, mine looks awful too. It's been so long I don't remember how many layers of batting I used but my sides are not wearing. I used some insul bright, which after watching your video must not have been needed. I do like the pretty fabric and like watching you work because you do it right. Thank you.
I made a small version that I can tuck under my sewing/craft table. I had too many kitchen cutting boards! I took the thickest, about 1/2", added a double layer of batting from a mattress pad, bound a layer of fabric, attached Velcro strips to the sides to pull taught on the board. I wanted removable and washable. All items were on hand. It even has a handle in the board design.
I am getting ready to make one, this was very helpful! Thanks Matt!
Thanks Matt. Really cool idea. My daughter is getting married and wanted an ironing board, after watching this we will make one.
Top👍. This will be my next ironing board. I have to introduce my Husband to cut the planc for me.😁
Really enjoyed seeing some of Grants Pass as you went to Home Depot. I enjoy all of your and Donna's videos!
Love that ironing board. My son is going to make me one.
Thanks so much for sharing this informative video. Now I know how simple it really is to make an ironing board like this!
Loved the video on your shop and All the components. This one too. Love you guys.
I have been shopping/looking for X-large ironing board and they are too expensive. Also, they are still not big enough. Matt, your ironing board video has given me the best alternative to a regular ironing board. The cost is great, as well as the ability to iron large fabric pieces and lay out quilt pieces. Thank you and God bless you, Donna, your family, and your business. Semper Fi!
Another must do for me. Many thanks. My goodness, what a beautiful town you live in, thanks so much for the quick tour. From Australia
Thank you for you tutorial. It was my go-by and it turned out perfectly according to your expert instructions!
Yes! I want one iron board like yours. It is very handy.
I have begun quilting and have been mesmerized by Donna's videos. I just came from the tour of their buildings and I was hoping there was a tutorial on those ironing boards!
Thank you! I feel confident that I can do this myself!💕
My husband also made a rectangle ironing board to put over my regular board and used cleets to keep it from moving around. I did however use a wool batting. Since our small wool ironing pads keep heat I thought the wool batting would also. I also used the silver ironing fabric. I know its boring but it works.
Your drive through town made me so homesick for GP. Lived up off Highland and later on Edgewater
Mardene Aos my in-laws used to live on Edgewater. Gale and Dorothy Hall river property. Surprise!
I enjoy all of your videos. Thank you.
Thanks a lot, I like how you make the board, it looks neat. 🌺🌸
Love this idea so much, just perfect for my sewing projects! Thank you for this tutorial!
I used pegboard, rounded the corners, made a cover out of silver ironing board cloth, cotton batting, and InsulBrite. The cover is removeable with elastic gathered corners. Using pegboard allows me to bolt it to my ironing board, through the metal grating.
Mary Richards-Kallman How did you attach the board to the frame. Did you use washers? How many screws ( or whatever). How far apart did you place them? Would you do a video of just the attachment of the board please?
any removable elastic gathered cover would not give you the tight flat unmovable surface for sharp pressing
Now that you’re board is several months old, how is the pegboard holding up? Assuming its masonite, i wondered how i was coping with the steam :)
Thank you so much ! Love your fabric choice.
Very Nice Matt!! Thank you!! Wonderful instructions!!
😱whoooo would dislike this? Thanks, Matt! I love ordering from Fire MTN Gems; thanks for pointing them out🥰
Beautiful loved the flowers print
