TECHNIQUES FOR PRESSING --

LARGE PIECES OF FABRIC:
To press large pieces of fabric, place the entire piece in the storage area behind the Ironing Board. The area you want to press first is on the top of
the pile.
Pull the fabric towards you, over the Ironing Board and lower the Pressing Plate, pressing each section as you move the fabric forward. Allowing
the fabric to drape in this manner will preserve the pressing and give you a complete job free of wrinkles.
SHIRTS and BLOUSES:
a. Place the shoulder yoke on the Ironing Board first, face down and press.
b. Place the sleeves on the Ironing Board next, with the fold parallel to the long seam and press.
c. Place the cuffs on the end of the Ironing Board and press.
d. Place the body of the shirt into the storage area between the Pressing Plate and Ironing Board, away from you. Press the side front of the shirt
including the placket, or pocked.
e. Pull the shirt towards you and continue to press each area until complete.
f. Place the shoulder yoke flat on the Ironing Board. Press to remove the crease.
g. Place the collar right side up on the Ironing Board and press.
