It is more awkward to use than a regular iron as you need a place to set the base. I used to have a larger ironing board with a shelf on the end that would hold it. My present board doesn't have a sturdy enough shelf so it resides below which isn't ideal. Also, the other disadvantage is that this type of iron takes longer to heat up. So I keep another iron nearby for quick jobs. My brand, LauraStar, is fairly pricey. Rowenta has one that is a lot less. There is a discussion thread over at PatternReview (http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/sewingclasses/board.pl?t=30419). Perhaps that will provide the information you need.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13908550129774912420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2337303862950522565.post-52261962770168996972008-09-21T09:18:00.000-07:002008-09-21T09:18:00.000-07:00After Googling the Marcy Tilton pattern (have been...After Googling the Marcy Tilton pattern (have been eager to try the skirt and pants), I landed upon your blog. Great projects and great blog! I'm writing, though, because I saw the (steam generator?) iron in the background of your red dress photos. I've been interested in getting one, but can't find a single soul that has one - any chance you could leave a few words on what you think of yours?

I guess that the fabric does not wrinkle to much. This is a beautiful colour. It must be fantastic on you.Anne-Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13734897164752339855noreply@blogger.com
