I found that when I did a peroxide solution to remove odor from a machine that the solution actually expanded in the bottle and started leaking all over the place. Would one of the HD bottles stop that too, do you think?
I definitely agree that too big is better. I auditioned this quilt (the dimensions I settled on were 95" x 95", and there's about 4" at the top of the bed I'm not sure where it's going to go, but I'll deal with that when it's quilted and bound.
I don't have a huge ironing pad either. I think it's about 32" x 22" or so. I just "process" big yardage by doing it conveyor belt style. I sweep the floor first, then let it fall before and after it's ironed on either side of the table it's on. Now if I could stop the cats and dog from trying to sleep on it when I iron, it would be nearly perfect.
