I'm certain now that the dry cleaner's could have done it without popping any stitches, because I tugged pretty hard. It would have looked even better steamed, but now I know how to do it. I hope it dries soon because I laid it out in kind of a goofy spot (didn't consider how big it was when I put it out). Anyway, thanks again!<br /><br />xo -EElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980461113595763030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-40330801628361557352012-04-23T05:00:39.516-05:002012-04-23T05:00:39.516-05:00Thanks Lane, great idea.

Looked kind of like a quilting frame except there were small nails all the way around the outside for sticking the curtains to and it had props that stood the frames upright. Curtains came out square and looking ironed. Quite a time saver since she had lots and lots of curtains and she could "pin" several on the frame at once. (How's this for a trip down memory lane.)Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18032916395238804901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-67647498951438853102012-04-22T17:38:14.071-05:002012-04-22T17:38:14.071-05:00I've never seen this before either.
