I make my own ironing board covers out of cotton fabric. Do you think if I put the ironing board silver under the cotton it would the same thing as the foil?

You can take this with a grain of salt as she also said it's colder in the country than it is in the winter. We are still trying to figure this one out.

I think this is because if it is still hot it can stretch, sounds right to me. Smart Lady your Mom
