    The sewing store. You can get a small pack for about $3 and a large pack with all sorts of sizes for approx. $12. They work excellent! The ones from the hardware store are too thick and the ones from the sewing stores are thinner and so the berries end up perfect.

    I have 2 Rowenta irons. The first one I got is over 15 years old , still works but thought I would get a back up....the new on leaks when I move it too much back and forth. NOT the iron its big sister is.....I still like the rowenta. But am glad to see the B&D has no auto shut off will check ouit that one. With the rowenta use tap water (un softened) and not distilled. The leak on distilled water....tlcquiltnut
