You just have to remove the towel slowly so it doesn't take some squares with it. When I was ready to iron, I used a small ironing pad (bought at Hancock's to slip under sections of the grid while I was ironing. That way I didn't have to move all the pieces to an ironing board. Miss Ophelia was never able to rearrange the squares, and she has yet to forgive me for that.
Thanks for the tips.
