Question about ironing board padding
OK fellow quilters, before I took up this fun new hobby, I rarely ironed. We simply don't own clothes that need ironing. I kept my iron and board under cover, literally, so they would not get dusty!
Since I began quilting my husband built me a pressing surface on top of my dryer. It is just a piece of wood, a towel and a cover. I use that for 90% of my quilt pressing.
When the quilt gets big, I have to switch to my ironing board. I recently treated myself to a brand new cover and removed 2 old covers and their attendant padding. When I use the ironing board, it is so much softer than my pressing board, it's disconcerting.
But IDK, is that how an ironing board (not a pressing board) is supposed to be? I tried to google how padded it should be, but didn't find anything helpful. Should I take a picture of how padded it is?
Any and all advice appreciated!
