That is the way it was in our home
Every female had to take turns ironing
In my home I iron by the kitchen window
Where orchids are blooming in the middle of winter
Where I can see who is coming down the lane
I don't iron by hand, I have a Miele ironing machine
When not in use it sits in a broom closet
and unfolds and snaps into place when I need it
And then it goes to work
All I have to do is step on the foot pedal and guide the cloth through the machine
I only iron twice a year
Mostly napkins
I paint many of my napkins. This one is hand block printed with acrylic paints and shapes cut from old computer mouse pads
Even large and fancy tablecloths are a snap
Wish you could have one too
Happy weekend, my dear blogging Friends

Therese Long of the fine Blog La Dolfina is looking for an Ironride for her Mother. Her readers would like to see a tutorial. The above is on a different machine but I think that all are very similar.
