Well, my qui...Mom didn't iron and neither do I. Well, my quilt stuff, of course. I highly recommend lavender essential oil on your burn. I grabbed my curling iron with my right hand and burned the daylights out of it. My oil was sitting right there. Within a half hour it was gone. A burn that severe will take a few days to heal. See if you can get some, it has multiple uses.

Boo! Sorry about your ironing incident. I love to iron and so did my mom. It must be a genetic trait! She had a brown beer bottle with a sprinkle stopper to dampen clothes. She must have needed the contents on a hot muggy August afternoon. :0). I'm not telling if I have the same arrangement.Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04492645548495218076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758475602275745268.post-47008561978410073552017-03-23T18:56:18.669-05:002017-03-23T18:56:18.669-05:00I was so s-l-o-w ironing clothes, that my mother s...I was so s-l-o-w ironing clothes, that my mother still takes them from me, and irons them herself (when I visit).

The only things that I remember ironing when I was young were my dad's hankies and his work clothes. I also remember sprinkling the clothes and putting them in the refrigerator over night. I don't remember ever ironing towels or sheets, but remember my aunt ironing them. For my aunt, Monday was wash day and Tuesday was ironing day.

I just finished a small project using 1 1/2" HSTs. <br />As for your burn - put aloe vera on it as soon as it happens and afterwards. It's a way to cool and heal quickly. I have lots of aloe plants but you can also find their gel at the grocery store or drug stores.

S...You know I love the little star quilt. So sweet!<br />Sorry you got a boo-boo! Oh, how well I recall all the ironing we all did in my younger days, and we used a spray bottle. I still keep one on my ironing board, because I don't put water in my irons. We used to iron everything, but Mom did draw the line at sheets--we didn't iron those. However, I know when we stayed with my great aunt on a vacation once she had us ironing the sheets to make up our beds.

I'm sure you have a great big smile on your face when you are working on this one. :^D<br />My mother used to say "you're learning the trade" whenever I burnt myself. I guess you're still learning. You must be so young still. :^D I do remember the forever chores of ironing. I remember using a damp big sponge to moisten the stubborn creases. Everything needed to be iron back then from shirts to dish towels. Even pillow cases, as per my mom. What a bore! No wonder I don't like ironing to this day. Hope that nasty burn heals quickly. ;^)Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772079099766225814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758475602275745268.post-62595526766808221882017-03-23T09:26:32.895-05:002017-03-23T09:26:32.895-05:00I like the idea of a go-to block to have on hand t...I like the idea of a go-to block to have on hand to meet the need for instant quilty gratification.

I know your nursing skills came into play after that. <br /><br />Yes, I ironed for my Mom a lot - used a pop bottle with the aluminum cork sprinkle head to dampen the items, make rolls and place them at the end of the ironing board. By the time I finished dampening, the first rolls were ready to iron. I became adept at ironing my brother's shirts<br /><br />Your mini quilt is adorable - such tiny pieces . . .
