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! 💖🌞🌵😷
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 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 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?

Matt you ironing board is brilliant. I will definitely show this to my husband as a suggestion 😊 thanks for sharing.
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 💖💖
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
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..
I have been getting Fire Mountain news for so long I can’t remember. Occasionally I order. thanks for pointing it out!
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!
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.
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
Clear instructions, thanks for this helpful tutorial.
Thanks Matt. Really cool idea. My daughter is getting married and wanted an ironing board, after watching this we will make one.
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 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.
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.

I’m going to finely make one of theses wonderful ironing boards today ... I’ll post pictures latter !
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 made my own IRONING BOARD like Matts. I think i have a very cool ironing board!!!!
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!
I enjoy all of your videos. Thank you.
Good job !!!!! I made myself a small one for small projects,,,, thank you Matt !!! You made it easy for me,,,,
I love that the video made by the husband starts with a trip to home depot that lasts a third of the video.
MEMooney it’s quite nice for us who do not live in such a developed country. It’s a opportunity to have a look at those stores!! ☺️
Yes! I want one iron board like yours. It is very handy.
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 love the background blogs you do, Matt. Lots of preparation for making Donna's quilts.
Again thank you for the tutorial on the ironing. Board I made mine today , it has a few flaws but I am happy with it and next time I I will work out those flaws. I love my ironing board. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the great idea and instruction, Matt!
Thanks a lot, I like how you make the board, it looks neat. 🌺🌸
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 just made one of these. Your tutorial would have made it much easier. Great job,
Thanks for doing the video
Thank you very much,!
Thanks Matt this is helpful to get set up.
Love the ironing board
Thanks, Matt! This is now my project of the day. My current ironing board has got to go!
Thank you Matt so much for this video. I will definitely be making me one of these. :)
So easy... thanks all done... such a great idea for larger ironing... :)
I just started watching your videos here in SC. I told my husband i wanted one. And he is making me one. But had no idea you made a video until i heard Donna say this is a "special fabric" on this ironing board my husband made me. After she said that i started to focus even more on the fabric. I know this fabric from my memory somewhere i know that sounds silly. But I love the Lord Jesus Christ and HE speaks to me in Beautiful ways. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks ! 😊
Thank you, for share.
I need one and now can made it.
Very nice, love the fabric
Thanks for sharing
Nice job! A beauty!
Thank you sir
Very helpful. Thanks.
Cl Anderson a
Great video ... Thank you so much. My question is will you make me one just like that 😊
SUPER, I'LL DO MY TOO
Loved you video but I wouldn't use 80/20 batting. I'm also a firefighter and hot ironing boards and polyester isn't quit what I had in mind. When the iron/irons are really hot that wood will hold the heat especially since your board is on a counter and not on an ironing board or legs of some kind to get air underneath so it can cool.
I know a lot of people don't think about this and it's why they are changing pads more often.
I was hoping you were making the board that goes onto the iron board.
I have the dimensions of the board and what I need. But I thought I was going to see how it's put together. lol o-well
I'm going to use the Insul-bright Fabric (not insul-bright batting) and add 100% cotton batting and my decorative fabric on top. Used that before on a regular ironing board and it works great.
Thanks for your video
Have a Bless Day
Several months ago I made a iron caddy using Debbie Shore's youtube video. She did not use the Insul-bright Fabric, but I opted to use it. I was still very disappointed. The heat and moisture went through all three layers of batting and the Insul-bright fabric. I won't try that again. Just didn't work. I do think having the birch wood board will and should make a significant difference in my ironing experience. I do wish I had used 100% cotton instead of 80/20. But I still expect to get lots of use and enjoyment out of mine.
Cheryl Matthews ii
Cheryl Matthews I always read / view about three examples when about to embark on a project. I read a comment on the SharonSchmberNet video which is informative. Goes further on your point.
Where can I find insul-bright fabric?
My husband is going to make one for me today, much smaller than yours though. But I can use it on my cutting table when I am ironing my fabric to start my quilt. I will love it. Good to know we dont have to use special fabrics. Thanks Matt. Love Jordan’s videos. Watch them all the time. Donna has taught me such good skills. Got to shop at your store last August when we were touring the area. I met
Donna. I was very fortunate. She has become a quilting star!
I really like the iron bord I am going to make one for myself mine is too small for my quilts thanks matt
really need one of these - gonna buy some ply wood & find me a handyman!
This is nice I use my kitchen table or my floor in my room
Estoy fascinada con tus enseñanzas
I like the idea of cutting away the bulk from the corner. Wish I had done that. Next time staple the batting and fabric separately. That way the fabric is easy to replace when it gets stained or yucky. Or when you just want a new cover.
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!
Keep on thinking get on the left side of the road, hahaha, forgot you drive on the right
Yeah, Tineke, I'm a left side of the road driver, too. LOL.
Did you specify what kind of batting you used? Polyester batting will probably melt so I am guessing you used cotton or wool batting to stand to iron heat. I'll bet you can cut some smaller tailor shapes out of the wood, too for clothing such as a sleeve board with legs. Thanks Matt
Great way to make an ironing board.... tell me does Matt sew as well? Seems it's all in the family with your daughter sewing, son recording, Matt does great in the cutting and color choices, but would like to see him show off some sewing skills!
Thank you for teaching us how to make the ironing board, I love your iron it has lot of steam were can I buy one
Thank you
rolda ferguson You can buy that iron at Bed Bath and Beyond... make sure you use a 20% off coupon.
Awesome job. I'm gonna make me a ironing board. Lol
I finally went to Lowe's and they cut my plywood for me and I'll start making my ironing pad this weekend. Thanks for sharing.
I am wondering if you can make an iron board on one side and a cutting mat on the other. I have limited space and have been wanting to see if this is doable!
I would love to have the space for one this large, but i do want to make one that is smaller that will fit my area. What I am wondering is why I should or shouldn't place some sort of vapor barrier between the batting and the wood? Wouldn't steaming things tend to do something to the wood?
time to replace my ironing surface too.
merci beaucoup
very usefull
Matt, do you like the heavier cotton fabric more than the canvas fabric for your ironing board? I'm planning on making one for my sewing studio soon.
Thank you!
LouAnn
Yes, Matt used heavy weight cotton that is used normally for upholstery or drapes.
Don’t you need a layer of heat resistant fabric between the batting and plywood? How does the steam from an iron not harm the wood?
You could use Insul-Bright too.
Insul Bright Polyester Fabric 45''
What type of iron do you use and what do you suggest
Didn’t you need a heat resistant layer to prevent the board from warping because of steam?
Wow! a headboard if you put trim on it.
Hi Matt, do you think it would it preserve the plywood longer to use cotton with an aluminum coating in addition to the cotton fabric and batting? Thanks, Lili
What’s the name of the fabric? Or type? Sorry I’m new in the quilting world but I couldn’t find it on the website. Thank you and many blessings for what u do.
do you use the "insul brite" as a top liner for potholders/ironingboard?
Would this be firm enough to place my cutting mat on top? Tight space means I’d like it to do double duty for pressing and cutting.
Matt,
My husband Denny and I made one of these today, it was so easy! It turned out so beautiful, I wish I knew how upload a picture to you
Melodi Johnston
Port Richey Florida
i make mine the exact same way, but I use insulbrite as insulation. do you use insulbrite to insulate the board, also?
Hi Matt, do you have some of the heavier fabric (I’m sure you don’t have what you used here but wondering weight-wise)?
does the batting have to be 100% cotton?
No, I use 80% cotton, 20% polyester and there are lots of other options including bamboo available.
Where can I purchase one of those Matts?
this is n wesome board for someone who 1) has the space for someting so lare in their sewing room. ( i do realie the size cn be adjusted to need, don't get me wrong). and for some one who may never say use something like ... say some startch... i don't want to have to have 2 of them sitting around so that i can switch them out all the time. not to mention it will get expensive as the sstartch build up would be gross and ubsanitary after a short amount of time. whynot just make a snug fitting pillow top like thing to go around it? something that can be taken off and washed every so often as the need arises. lie when one of my gannies come running in with their juice cups and spills something on it. lol
What kind of iron do you use on the show? I can’t find a steam iron that works good and I have had several.
We use a Rowenta iron that has the water reservoir in the
base, not the handle. You can find them on Amazon - look for the Pro Precision
or the Perfect Steam.
What kind of iron do you use?
That's what I was afraid of.
I am really glad you stopped using the horrible, loud music. I have to watch these earlier videos with the sound off and the captioning on.
Good tutorial! Are you concerned about the fabric cover colors transferring onto your project fabric with all of the steam heat? Would you recommend washing the fabric first to prevent color transfer?
Thanks!
We have not had any color transfer, and have made these many times in the past, but certainly washing the fabric first would be a good idea.
What made you want to open a fabric store? Whose idea and why? What part of the store is your favorite (for each of you?) Thank you in advance if you actually take the time to reply. 👍👍👍
We have been in the quilting and/or fabric business for a long time. The retail store has been open for about 2 years, but we have sold fabric and quilted items at shows and online for years. I love seeing all the projects that our customers bring in - it is quite inspiring. Matt likes picking out the fabric combinations that we cut into our kits.
Jordan Fabrics Thank you for your reply!! 👍👍👍
Matt, your board is great. I am going to have some wood cut, get a stapler and make one. Thanks. KB -Nevada
Kaffe Fassett fabrics
It's so cute and touching to see this vibrant couple who share a passion for this wonderful world of fabric!
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?
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.
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 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.
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.
Thanks for another great video! It was fun seeing parts of your town and the mountains, too!
