I need a cheap compact-able sewing table

[Calliope]

DH wants his fancy $400 solid wood desk back. :giggle So, I need an inexpensive replacement that is strong enough for me to sew on but folds up or has a collapsible leaf. Any idea?

Jo-Ann's has one, and you can either wait for a good sale or use the 40% off coupon. I think I've seen it as low as $60-$70, definitely $99. I tried to buy a regular rectangular folding plastic table somewhere cheaper, and it has been a major pain...hard to take down and NOT wide enough for cutting the width of the fabric, which means trying to use the bed or kitchen table or floor...which means that I put off sewing if it involves cutting.

I use my dining room table for now but would love another option.

I'm also sewing at the dining room table, but our dining room has the best light... Let me know if you get a sewing table. I would be interested to hear about it! I have seen one in a catalog called Nancy's Notions that looked interesting to me.
