    Default Soft and Stable Fumes
    Does any one think that Soft and Stable smells when ironed? Fumes? Anyone get headaches from this smell?

    I notice a smell but haven't had any headaches from it. I rarely ever get headaches so I don't have any triggers to bring one on.

    No problems for me but I rarely have problems with headaches or heavy perfumes. Sorry you are having problems with it - it is such a great product.

    Are you supposed to iron it. Isn't it a polyester based product

    I make alot of purses using cotton. As I am sewing it together I am ironing seams open. Several folds to make handles and the Soft and Stable is in the middle.

    I do too. I have never experienced the fumes you mention. Maybe your iron is too hot?

    I am sensitive to smells when I iron, so I have a small clamp-on fan that I use on the ironing board, to diffuse the odor. It does help some.
