I still like to iron though, even had a great business for a while doing ironing for executive types.
My mother was a professional "ironer" -- she worked in a steam laundry for years -- and taught me this method of ironing, too. But I only put rolled damp items in the refrigerator if I didn't get to them that day, to prevent mildew.....back when I ironed endless baby clothes and little boy shorts and shirts. Odd how little I iron now....except when quilting!
