Maybe Amazon Drygoods. -----Original Message----- From: h-costume-boun...@indra.com [mailto:h-costume-boun...@indra.com] On Behalf Of Mary + Doug Piero Carey Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2012 1:21 PM To: h-cost...@indra.com Subject: [h-cost] %$#&* irons!
Fran complained about modern irons. Amen, Sistah! Not to mention the handles that have a sharp seam EXACTLY where it will chafe a sore spot onto your thumb if you need to iron for longer than it takes to touch up a permapress blouse you forgot in the dryer overnight. And what is it with the spitting & dripping? They had that solved back in the 70s! I wouldn't mind the inactivity cut-off, if you could disable it for sewing sessions. The last thing in the world I need is an iron that cools off during a seam! Mary, the equally exasperated p.s. I seem to recall a catalog with some old-fashioned irons in it -- maybe Vermont Country Store? I'll have to go look. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
