Default Soft and Stable Fumes

Does any one think that Soft and Stable smells when ironed? Fumes? Anyone get headaches from this smell?

I notice a smell but haven't had any headaches from it. I rarely ever get headaches so I don't have any triggers to bring one on.

No problems for me but I rarely have problems with headaches or heavy perfumes. Sorry you are having problems with it - it is such a great product.

Are you supposed to iron it. Isn't it a polyester based product

I make alot of purses using cotton. As I am sewing it together I am ironing seams open. Several folds to make handles and the Soft and Stable is in the middle.

I do too. I have never experienced the fumes you mention. Maybe your iron is too hot?

I am sensitive to smells when I iron, so I have a small clamp-on fan that I use on the ironing board, to diffuse the odor. It does help some.
