A Must: Mary Ellen's Best Press


You have probably seen this wonderful product before, but I use it so regularly that I thought I'd share it again!

It is wonderful because it gives you a nice crisp fabric to work with and it does not leave a residue.  I also love the way it irons out the creases on folded fabric. It comes in lovely fragrances or without a fragrance at all, if you have allergies. I buy mine locally at a Hancock Fabric store, I just buy the refill bottle, since I have the spray bottle from before. It was $11.99 but I was able to use a 40% coupon! It goes a long way and I think it's well worth it. Plus in my mind it helps me to match my seams! What a win!

Maybe give it a try! I think you will like it!

Hope you are enjoying the remainder of Summer, as it is flying by!

  2. I love this stuff, but I've never found it on sale. The only Hancocks in our area is quite a distance away, and I didn't know they had coupons. Will have to check on this whenever I am in the area.

  3. I love it too but find it to be very expensive. I have never found it anywhere on sale or where I could use a coupon.

  5. My absolute favorite...Perhaps it is why I love to iron. I often dilute mine with a little water to make it last a little longer. Smiles..Renee

  6. i love using best press! a little bit goes along way while delivering a smooth fabric with just a quick pressing. i'm fortunate to be able to buy it by the gallon up in the big city.

  7. I just ran out of mine today while pressing all the 30's fat quarters I just bought this week. Love it, had to finish with my home made spray. I will be able to compare when I sew these fabrics soon.

  8. Yup, I use that stuff and love it. Wish it weren't quite so spendy, but the refill idea is awesome! Thanks.

  9. That sounds like an interesting product. For some reason it reminded me of my younger years when I was in dance school...and every time before a recital my mom would have to use fabric starch on my costumes :) :) They came out crispy and straight...no wrinkles :) Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)
