I have watched lots of quilting videos and they all seem to iron. Just this morning I watched Jenny Doan video and she tends to iron the blocks. Sometimes, she uses a spurt of steam....thought that was a no-no too, although I use a quick spray when needed.
I always press blocks.
What are your thoughts about this? Is it the time constraint when doing a video?
Thanks.
I've wondered about that too....maybe it's a "do as I say and not as I do" thing?
Like most everything in quilting, do what gives you the best results...
