When I got my new iron in May 08, I removed the iron rest and recovered the board with a remnant from the Great Stash.
However, as time has gone on, I have managed to scorch this cover too. Oops!
So up into the loft again and find another remnant. This is the remainder of a 2 yards of linen/cotton union fabric I found in a remnant bin for £1 in 1980. Job done!
I have to ask...how on earth do you remember the year you bought that particular scrap after all this time?
ReplyDeleteI remember because it was the year after we married, and I'd had a particularly difficult day at school, and I went to the shops on my way home and 'treated' myself to a £1 remnant to cheer myself up [being thrifty even then, you notice!]
