I don't use best spray, spray starch or steam. After I wash new fabric I dry put in dryer, totally dry it. I immediately take to dining table fold in have with 6x24" ruler and stack with the others. Usually fab.s don't need ironing when I'm ready to iron.
Placing damp fabric comes from years ago when all outside worn clothes were ironed. We sprinkled with water and stuck them in a waterproof bags, ironed them next day. For some reason it made them iron better and look better.
I was very glad when polyester ( wash and wear) clothing came out -- no more ironing clothes. Now if clothes need to be ironed, they get donated.
I do have a B&D classic iron, about my third since I started quilting, the best one yet. I need to buy another for a back up.
