Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 44, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 February 1912 — Ironing Hint. [ARTICLE]

Ironing Hint.

All hand embroidery should be ironed wrong side out over folded thick material. The nicest thing for the purpose is a piece of white homespun flannel;, those who possess it are fortunate indeed. White outing flannel folded so it is of several thicknesses makes a good substitute for the modern housekeeper. It is also well to lay a piece of old mufclin over the wrong side of the article, as the irons, which never should be very hot, sometimes soil or scratch the work, which must be pressed slowly.
