Save yourself some carpal tunnel issues down the line - the key to great pressing and crisp seams isn't the weight of our irons, it's the heat. Many irons don't heat up as much as needed for quilting, so you need to do some research, but really, do yourself a favor and get a lightweight iron that gets good and hot (100% cotton can take the heat!). Your wrists will thank you!!
