    Pretty fabrics! Have you used the Mary-Ellens before? I have never tried it but have considered it.

    What is that Best Press stuff? I've seen it in shops, but I don't know what it's for. It looks, in the shops, like some are scented. Is this something you iron with?

    It is not fumy. On the contrary I find it better for my sensitivity than the spray starch my grandma used to use and that I tried using when I first got started quilting.

    Nice looking fabric. Please let us know how you like the Best Press. I've only heard of it, never seen it at the Hancock's or JoAnn's that I shop at.
