Household Essentials Deluxe Ironing Board Pad and Cover, Sewing Guide Pattern
It's a cool design
I bought the doodles design and I like it very much. It's an elastic band type so the edges are a bit difficult to manage but it's better than the old string type I am replacing. This is a one piece cover so there is not an inner layer to worry about. It is quite thick and nice to use.
One thing to mention though, I did something stupid when I bought it. I just bought a new iron and I wanted to test it out on this cover, but since I had nothing on hand to iron, I just ironed the cover directly, this caused the stain/burn resistant coating to sort of come off (I think). Anyways, my stainless steel iron was covered with something, but it was easily washed off with a paper towel.
All in all, I really like the cover, it's nice and thick, covers my ironing board well and it's relatively inexpensive.
Is the pocket necessary
This is a lovely ironing cover, but the iron cord hangs on the utility pocket. It would probably work well for a left-handed ironer, however. If you're right-handed, plan on removing the pocket.
I abuse my ironing board pad...this one's great
I'm forever glueing, stitching, and ironing and crafting items on my ironing board... this one's is great with the measurements e directly accessible. The pad is just the right thickness too so that you can get a nice crisp edge to a fold as well as smooth finish to straight ironing. If the pad is too thick you cannot get a crisp edge to a fold when you are ironing thicker fabrics (canvas, heavy cotton, etc.)...This one is perfect.
