To add to a previous article on ironing or pressing a quilt, we have some more information.

Alot of quilter's i have talked to always state: Press a quilt…dont iron it.

What they mean by this, is that when ironing a quilt, use the weight of the iron to "press" the fabric without having to move the iron back and forth across the surface of the fabric.  This will allow the iron to do the work for you and will help protect the quilt.

As always, a good ironing board cover such as a Ezy Iron ironing board cover at www.ezyiron.com which will reflect the heat to help reduce pressing time.
