I press at every stage and especially the finished top. How else could you get everything square and all the seams laying flat and in the same direction. I may or may not starch or spritz water from a spray bottle, depends on how it's behaving. I don't see how you could NOT press personally, but I guess we all have our ways of working. :-D

I have that too, isn't it funny? I can press cotton fabric all day long, and be happy as a pig in the proverbial, but make that fabric up into a shirt...nope, not interested! Hang it up while it's damp and it's good to go! :mrgreen: :lol:
