I just read all four pages of answers hoping that I would not see my tip already, and I did not.
a tablespoon of vinegar in a cup of water. Put it in a spray bottle and keep in your sewing room girls. Spray it on the fabric when you iron. It takes out stubborn wrinkles. (learned this at a demonstration at a quilt show)

I don't cut the vinegar with water, just use it full strength and wipe off with micro fiber rags. It works better and is much less expensive than buying a variety of specialized cleansers for different jobs.
