I got it done! It was frustrating because I put too much cornstarch into my water and after drying the pillow covers I realized I was never going to be able to iron them. They were incredibly stiff and hard. So I put them through a rinse cycle and hung them up again. Even then they were very stiff but with a very hot iron and lots of steam I got them all ironed.
Besides that I got some garden work done and not much else. I would have gotten my post done much earlier but I had some problems with my computer. #2 Son has ordered a new hard drive and hopefully that will help.
Thanks for popping by, GM
Very pretty!

Your bed looks so invitingly beautiful. Wow on all the ironing, ruffles and all. I have a pair of linen pillow shams with ruffles all around, but I just let them flop whichever way they want to. Your starched and ironed ruffles bring back memories of my petticoats from long ago. Mary@Hilltop Post
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful pillow covers. I know it was a lot of work, but it was worth it.
ReplyDeleteYour pillows look so pretty. Do you watch Mary's videos of White Cottage Company? She would be proud of you! :)

They are beautiful! I have never done starching from scratch like that, and haven't even used spray starch for many years...
