Since I am a Bonnie Hunter fan, I can deconstruct a man's shirt. But up until now, they have been 100% cotton that needed to be ironed. Today, two of my husband's NO IRON shirts (still 100% cotton) went into the scrap pile due to stains/ink. Has anyone used these No Iron shirts for quilting? Any pros or cons if you used them? Thanks for the input.

I have had no issues with this type of men's shirt. Cut , sew .. quilt ..just as you would any other fabric.

Did you try to remove the ink with hair spray? or the citrus oil stuff?

I'm not a slave to 100% cotton, so I use what I want, where I want.

AND, I don't follow any designers. I can deconstruct a shirt or pants or sheet or shirt or blanket with the best of them, without ever seeing a Bonnie Hunter!

I agree with Lori S.

Wondering why a 100% cotton shirt would be "no iron". Have not run into this in any of my clothes.

Here's Bonnie's website- Quiltville.com. Bonnie is known for scrap quilting and uses men's shirt fabric in them.

I don't think that it means you can't iron them...it means you don't need to. Apparently they have some sort of special finish on them that minimizes wrinkles, unlike untreated cotton.

Cotton is cotton. You can iron it.

I so agree with you as this is just what I do also!!!
