EasyPeezy - Thanks for clarifying that.
I kept expecting the starch to take the creases out, especially when I saw the fabric "change size" when I sprayed it.
DOTTYMO - What is the theory behind the fridge thing? I've never noticed if the line was still there after washing. Now I'll have to look. You starch before you dry? Without ironing? Usually I take it out, fold it "approximately straight and fold it onto my boards. I know I'll have to iron afterward anyway, so I don't when it comes out of the dryer, unless I'm using it right away.
mom-6 - I didn't realise that shops unrolled them to check size. I've seen people count the wraps and estimate from there. That seems so tedious, but I guess I can see why they would do it. That wrinkle resistant finish is one of the ones that washes out, right? I had no idea how much I didn't know about fabric!
QuiltE - I have a bottle of it here, I should have used it. I was using up the other starch first. Something I was able to get in the small town grocery when I needed it last time. Maybe I'll just use that stuff on DH's underwear or something. He'll love that.
I found as soon as I grew some patience that scorching wasn't an issue anymore, but I definitely hear what you're saying.
I had no idea that the sizes of beds were so variable! I like the idea of a square quilt too, and it occurred to me that we have used King quilts on this bed for years. The queens, probably meant to just cover the top and a little drop, always seemed to leave my bottom cold when DH hogs the covers.
Spoken like someone who's experienced an Alberta winter. Maybe I'll trapunto just for that extra layer of warmth!
