(Lesson learned: do NOT leave a pieces of a top lying around for so long again.)
The last time I did this I fixed it buy spraying the fabric w/so much starch that it was dripping. Then I let it sit til it was damp. Then I pressed. A few timed I let it sit too long & had ta spray warm water on it before I pressed it. I hope this helps.
