                                                                            "Pressing Duties"
We will be showing many kinds of DIY portable pressing surfaces and suggestions for iron totes.
Cindy White will be teaching an Iron Caddy that unfolds to a pressing surface. The following link
gives full directions. Please print the pages and bring all materials. Cindy has several copies of the pattern available for use. You may use whatever fabric you desire. Becky Sydnor will be bringing her bolts of fabric with irons printed on it.
Please sit toward the front, left side of room if you plan to make this project

                                             Materials Needed for Iron Caddy Tote:
Copy of Pattern
20” X 25 1/2”

1 X Silver Ironing Board Fabric
2 X Warm and Natural Batting
Contrasting fabric for binding and straps
This Robert Kaufman fabric will be available for purchase at
$4 per yard from Becky.
Betty will be presenting a simple bag for your travel iron. You will need either prequilted fabric, or fabric plus cotton batting or Insulbrite, and the silver coated teflon fabric. Exact size will be given in class. Let's guesstimate for now at two pieces of each 14" x 10". Do not use directional fabric. Please bring a zipper at least 14" or longer. Bring scraps of fabric or ribbon if you want to add zipper tabs or a handle.
