Joanns won't accept coupons on irons, no matter how small,so I use my old,very old Sunbeam dry iron.

I also have a little (TINY!) iron by Sharptek - it's in the iron section at Joann for about $7.00. Very, very cute and much easier to handle than the Clover wand-type iron. I think it's hotter, too, which I like. The heat is not adjustable, but for my purposes, it doesn't matter. I use it while paper piecing. The only thing I don't like about it is that the cord keeps falling out of the iron. I am going to glue it in with E6000 the next time I use it. |
I love my mini iron!

I use the Clover one, keep it right next to my machne right next to the smallest cut on one side, iron on the other board about 5 inches. i love it!
A warning, it does not have an automatic shutoff so don't forget to shut it off when you are finished. |
I have one but only use it on Fusible bias! Anyting else I like steam.

I have the Clover iron, but I never thought it got hot enough for me. So I get my daily exercise by walking to my ironing board to press my seams.
The likn that izaquilter gave with her comment looks promising. I may try it. |
I bought a little(total length 6") Conair steam iron at Big Lots for $8 and love it. I keep it by my sewing machine for convience.

Have the Clover mini iron without A, used it a lot when I first got it but then stopped??? I need to get it out again, it was handy for blocks and paper piecing. Thanks for reminding me.

I have a clover mini but for some reason I rarely use it. It had a little stand that came with it so you could prop it up -no other attachments came with it. I guess I need to dig it out and give it another try when I get back to paper piecing my 6 inch pineapple blocks as I see some of you say that is good to use with that technique.

I have the Clover Mini w/attachments and would be lost without it, my Mom purchased it for herself and she never used, and I am the happy recipient of it!
