Wool pressing mat 43 cm x 43 cm x 1.25 cm thick

Press any patchwork or embroidery block with ease. The density of this high-quality, 100% wool felt mat concentrates heat on seams and stitches, effectively pressing both sides simultaneously. An added benefit? The wool's texture prevents fabric from shifting, ensuring no distortion occurs during pressing. Tips and tricks: For best results, use a dry iron. When pressing an embroidered block, press the back side; the wool mat protects the stitches and preserves the texture of the embroidery design. If the mat feels damp after use, hang it up to dry before storing. Wash the mat occasionally by rinsing it with cold water and allowing it to air dry. If using starch, wait until the fabric is completely dry before pressing; starch buildup can damage the mat if not cleaned properly. Recommended surfaces for the wool mat include Formica, Corian, stone, and metal (such as an ironing board). Use a protective layer, like the No-Stick Applique Sheet TGQ117, between the wool mat and wooden or painted surfaces. Never place the mat on a rotary cutting mat while pressing; the heat can warp the cutting mat.
