Took it to classes last year it was very useful in a place full of quilters with li,tied irons.

That's what I was thinking of trying!

The best iron tote you won't have to wait for the iron to cool or worry about dripping water is a small galvanized bucket. It sits great in the car. Just unplug and plop the iron in, grab handle and go.

I found a FREE tutorial for an Iron Caddy Tote the other day, but I don't know the website. I saved the tute as a pdf file, if anyone wants it, PM me. I don't know how to post a tutorial.
