Well since I was pressed for cash (meaning I couldn't go buy a new one) I went to the local thrift store and found an old fashioned mini mini non- steamer iron for $.99. It served its purpose cause I was able to finish the dress with many burns cause this is not a friendly iron "I sware the next time I use I will be wearing an oven mit." Overall this post has caused me to appreciate what a iron could do for you especially in the sewing environment. Thanks for alerting my sewing "spirit" I am now looking to invest in a top of the line iron.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-29877681854482736742013-05-23T19:30:50.606-07:002013-05-23T19:30:50.606-07:00I didn't know irons like this existed.

Our...I am sure my mom would like that iron so much. Our iron at home broke recently and it was the only one we had. We were using a steamer in place of it, because trying to buy a good iron to serve my mother's sewing needs and be accessible to my siblings and I is not an inexpensive feat. My mom hasn't been able to sew at all lately due our last iron being broken, but I'm certain the lift of the i-touch on this one will make her smile with joy. She could have her own sewing iron and wouldnt have to worry about the quality because that iron is perfect for what she needs to keep improving as a sewer. <br />I am really impressed by the garments that she has been making recently, especially since she is just starting to get her feet wet with sewing. I wasn't able to afford a gift for Mother's Day this year... I am sure she would enjoy that though.

Mimi, you have inspired & encouraged me to get back in the habit of sewing. Before, I would sew just to get by, mainly maxi dresses because I am 5'11 and store bought maxis stop at my calf. However, by tuning into to MimiGStyle, I have a new passion to enhance my skills, create more and get to the point where I can make all of my clothes, not just maxis. I am amazed by the Oliso Iron!!! I never realized how important it was to iron as you sew prior to discovering your blog. This Oliso would definitely be an asset to my quest to be the best seamstress I can be. I know it will also help out during jewelry making during those times when I am using fabric as a medium.

I actually grew up in an upholstery shop(family business - had to work with my dad after school and on weekends). I could show my dad a dress, skirt, shirt or pair of pants, hat, etc. and he could make them for me without a pattern. I felt that I loss a lot of my childhood working in the shop not realizing the many future opportunities learning such a skill would offer me. When I left home I swore I would never ever cut, sew with or without a pattern, sew whelps, skirts, hems, make buttons, or even replace a button. Recently, my sister started sewing again and she told me about your blog. I reluctantly checked it out and to my surprise I have this renewed desire to sew again. I would love to present this iron to my sis as a gift (as she recently began taking private sewing lessons and as a thank you for inspiring me to check out your blog and Facebook page and once again entertaining the thought of sittng down at a sewing machine and work my god given/family trained talent, AND for pointing me in your direction because you truly are inspiring.therealsandyboohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415487108402973544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445615081384739024.post-78597133174521452862013-05-22T10:58:37.481-07:002013-05-22T10:58:37.481-07:00OMG!

You have no idea how much I need an iron. I have been having mine since highschool (over 10 years)! The steam barely works and leaves splashes of water on my clothes and fabrics and all the settings are scratched off so I never know what setting to use for my fabrics. I have been looking for irons to buy, but haven't found the right one (for the right price) yet. Needless to say, I can really use an iron! LOL!
