    if it works it almost doesn't matter about the price. it's better than having to change it again. what a nuisance! how does it work? as a top layer or a mid layer or where?

    Working top to bottom, mine is muslin, Warm & Natural, Insul-Bright, two more layers of Warm & Natural. It works really well for me, and at the retreat I went to last month several others who tried it liked it too.

    Yes, mine is the 3rd layer down. It is a poly material, and I want to be able to press using the hottest setting on the iron. The instructions for using it say to use it w/ a layer of cotton batting.

    thank you both for this info. i have a 40% coupon for joann that's good now.
    if they have it, i'll definitely get it. if they don't have it, i'll wait for my 50% to go into effect and go to the super joann's (a distance away).

    For the ironing board cover I would use a product by Bo-Nash which is a silver Luminex material. It reflects 300% more heat than regular cotton covers :) Called IronSlide 2000. Available on line at www.bonash.com.
