I quite like my iron and use it mostly for sewing. Ironing is my least hated housework task. I LOVE starched bedlinen - it's my fantasy come true every night, (he who must not be mentioned says neurosis.) Starched and ironed pillow cases, sheets and doona covers make going to bed a sensual experience, worth every bit of the trouble. It feels like a six star hotel! The linen keeps the right feel for about 10 days, so it is not too frequent a job. It is becoming extremely difficult to find starch, so I would appreciate if anyone knows where to buy the old fashioned type. Interesting to see how others feel.

I tell him I need it for my patchwork! I do iron the really good clothes when we go out. But why iron them when they are washed when you only have to iron them again when you get them out of the wardrobe because they are crushed? My husband wonders why I have an iron.

I have that exact iron and I love to use my Crisp brand starch!! I love the smell, I love the result. Love, love, love starch. I use starch to put a nice, finished look to the kids aprons and bags I make. Funny, I\'m like you. I don\'t iron anything BUT my sewing!! I had to laugh when I saw the first picture on this post.
