I know I won't be able to this week, so now I have to wait until the following week.....wait a sec...my soldier boy is coming home that week so it'll be the 1st before I can start anything...rrrrgggg. Bad mood has returned...I'll just reread this thread...I'm sure it'll lift me up again!!

Thing I learned this week....
When ironing, after you unplug the iron and walk away, make sure it doesn't fall over onto meltable items like CARPET!!! I got most of it wiped off, but I'm scared to use the iron again. There's stuff inside the holes, but just 1 or 2 of them. Do you guys think I should go buy another one?? Perhaps use this one when I use magic sizing. I don't know. What do you think?

I gunked up my iron with iron on interfacing, and my iron has teflon soleplate so it can't be scrubbed. I tried the manufacturers directions to clean it, and it didn't work.
I bought Sole Plate Cleaner at WalMart, and used it twice - still not clean. I ended up making little scrapes on the iron using the edge of a knife. I guess I could have tried GOO GONE, but I ran out of patience.
It beat having to buy a new iron, but I was really tempted to get a new one if I couldn't get the black goo off it.
