Iron Cozy

April 15, 2013 in Finished Projects, Quilting by Lesley | 3 comments

I can’t tell you why I made this or who I made it for. But I made it.

I wish I had an iron that fit in it. The pattern is from Elizabeth Hartman and is for standard irons. Since mine has a retractable cord, it doesn’t fit.

Of course, I had to incorporate some chevrons.

And some more chevrons.

I don’t know why, but I really liked the velcro stitching on the strap. It made me happy for some weird reason.

The pattern was fabulous. It went really quickly and I had no issues. It was a really easy project and I almost had it finished at the retreat.

I can’t wait to tell you what it’s for, but I have to keep it secret for awhile.

I know what it’s for! And I’m making one, too. I need to figure out how to make it work with a retractable cord…
