Steam and Best Press
|
Steam usually, dry for paper-piecing.
|
I use both,depending on the job.

The Continental dry iron - Home Depot online. Love it. It's heavy, hot and doesn't have automatic shut-off. None of those annoying holes in the plate for fabric to get caught in. Highly recommend!

if I feel the wrinkles are more than spritzing can fix, I spray with water put in a plastic bag and place in the fridge over night...this will swell the threads and remove the wrinkles! |

Dry- and I think Mary Ellen's Best Press is the best stuff around! Never heard of it until I I joined the board.
Totally worth the money. |

Dry iron with spray sometimes.

Steam, but I press not iron.
