That is my phlosiphy (sp?) about clothes. I hang them up from the dryer and then iron as I wear. Yrs ago I had a discussion with a co-worker about this. She had an ironing night. I asked her if she ran the iron over her clothes the day she wore them and she said "yes". I said," Then you're ironing twice."
Well, Sister, we surely do think alike. That's what I do...wash fabric, dry, fold while warm. Iron when I'm ready to use it.
