Cotton Backing that I had left over from a quilt I made.
I don't feel like I have enough "cushion", I know I don't need a lot but I feel there is just not enough. Also, the backing material I used doesn't feel heavy enough.
What type of backing did you use??
What type of material did you use for the ironing surface?
Thanks everyone for your help.
Not too long ago there was a thread on this board about using a canvas drip cloth they had at Lowes or Home Depot to use as a cover for the ironing boards they had , it was quite inexpensive and worked well.
