I was just going to ask about the flat ironing. I just made a large square project that I have to fix and I'm so frustrated with it. Curled up and broke apart. Thanks for clearing that up, though.
Whoa.. I'm not sure I've ever see any project ironed so flat.. Neat/Different effect.. just startling... Usually ironing so flat causes crazy curling. Did you just cool it with weight on it? Or just ironed the other side as much to balance it out?
I normally stack a few thick books on it, still on the bead board, while it cools. I then flip it, take it off the board, iron the back slightly, and then add books again.
P.S. Awesome job!
Take a look at my other work as well.
I try to only do the flat ironing
