Blocking Board

Wednesday, March 16th, 2005

Everybody loves a good blocking board! I always get questions about my blocking board whenever I show photos that include it. So, no problem! Here’s the info…

I bought the board, called the “Sew E-Z Board”, from an E-bay store called ["Memphis Vintage"](http://stores.ebay.com/Memphis-Vintage_Table-Top-Products). I got the larger version of the board which is 30″ x 48″. There’s a smaller version too. The board folds in half for storage. The price for the larger version is about $65 USD. Oh, and shipping was about $20 USD. Marlene at Memphis Vintage is super-nice too and very easy to work with.

Enjoy!!!
