You've made us all more aware of what our iron is up to.....!

That's scary!

That's the reason I have my iron on a serge protector in a socket that's connected to the wall switch. A lamp is attached also. If the lamp is on so is the iron. If the lamp is off, so is the iron. Then I check it twice before I leave the room!

Glad you are safe.

connecting the lamp is a great idea, thanks

I do the same Sillysusan! I also never leave the kitchen when I boil eggs or put the teapot on the stove.

Yikes! So glad it wasn't worse!

Thank you SillySusan for the great 'lamp' idea!

Oops. I can't quilt if I don't have an iron. You'll have to replace it quickly.
