Ironing tips

The following tips are intended as
helpful suggestions to get you
started. With practice you will
probably find alternative ways of
ironing which suit your style of
working.
Tea towels, hand towels,
handkerchiefs, serviettes etc.
Place on the ironing table with the
straight grain of the fabric to the feed
board. This will prevent the item going
out of shape and it will be easier to fold.
Handkerchiefs and serviettes can be
fed into the ironer horizontally and then
folded and ironed again if wished.
Use the full width of the roller.

Table cloths

To avoid creases iron the middle
section first.
^ Place the table cloth across the roller
with the ends hanging off either end.
^ Then fold in half.

^ Then pass both sides of the
un-ironed sections through the ironer.
Leave the ironed middle section
hanging over the left hand side of the
roller to prevent creases.
^ After folding, table cloths can be
passed through the ironer again if
wished.
Sheets
Sheets can be ironed in the same way
as table cloths, or if a lengthwise fold is
acceptable they can be folded and
ironed.
Embroidered sections and raised
patterms on linen should be ironed on
the right side first and then from the
reverse.
