My arms ache from pressing down so hard on the iron (I set the board down very low so I could get a good weight on it) and I used steam, wet presscloth (like my instructions say) and did everything twice, then went over it all again with just the iron on both sides. Each time I left it to cool completely before I touched it.
Just sign me "fed up" - I have two new purse patterns I'm dying to try, don't know what to do - guess I'll have to quilt them.
Don't over use steam, just a little dab will do. too much steam can sometimes make bubbles that look smooth when it is hot, but show when it cools all the way.
