Patterns and Supplies

 I may have mentioned about Thanksgiving that my Iron was starting to spit, and maybe... I should think of getting a new one.  And then life went on and I forgot about it, and about two weeks ago I was delivering Beef in the Denver area. I mentioned to my husband that I might just run in and see if I could find an Iron I liked.

He said "Why don't you want till the weekend and I'll go with you? Plus I could use some help feeding tonite". and because I really don't like to shop all that much I said  okay!

And then I forgot about maybe getting a new iron. 

Then the UPS guy showed up (Pre snow storm) and there was a box, and Husband got really excited and he opened it for me and Look!!


My Very Own Oliso Iron!! and ( now don't laugh) He got me the Professional Version!
I can steam things too!! I love it!!! oh - and you can leave it in the iron position and it pops up when not in use!

I asked him how he learned about it - and he said... I was watching your quilting show with you on you tube and that lady had one, and I figured - my Quiltygirl needed one too ( awwww)

  1. Congratulations on the Oliso - that is the same on I have! I love the pop-up feature plus it stays hot longer than any other I've had. What a clever and thoughtful husband!

  2. Make sure your husband keeps the receipt for the iron. I bought an Oliso iron at one of the big sewing expos and it died in a year. At lot of money to pay for an iron that doesn't hold up. I managed somehow to get a replacement and it only lasted a year. I am not trying to be a Debbie Downer, just a realist.

  4. well wasn't that sweet of your guy! it looks like a nice iron. let us know how satisfied you are with it. I always hear such mixed reviews on the "good" irons some say they are worth the price and others say after a short while they are not satisfied with them either. I dropped my tiny one that I kept in the sewing room to use one too many times and it quite working so now one of the inexpensive irons resides in the sewing room (I have 2 cheap ones)

  7. What a sweet thing for your husband to do. I bet everyone of your blog readers swooned a little as they read about his thoughtful purchase. As if watching a quilting show with you wasn't enough, he even remembered what kind of iron to buy. He's a keeper.

  11. What a thoughtful husband. I just replaced my iron after it died at a retreat a couple of weeks ago. The jury is still out on whether I like it or not. LOL
