Ironing Sewing Patterns

You’ll needHand Ironing

  • Iron
  • Ironing board
  • Muslin

How-to

  1. Prepare the ironing board by laying a piece of double folded muslin atop a sturdy ironing board.
  2. Lay the wrinkled pattern piece atop the muslin.  Ironing is easier if you lay the pattern crosswise.
  3. Heat the iron to it’s lowest setting.  Test the heat temperature on a piece of paper that’s similar to the pattern piece.  If it burns or scorches you know the iron is too hot.
  4. Quickly iron the pattern piece until wrinkles are removed.  Keep the iron moving at all times.
  5. Fold the pattern piece and place them in their envelope after ironing.

Note:  Avoid using steam.
