Ironing Twill Problem with ironing twill
RETTWINS Member since 11/19/12 Posts: 2	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 12/16/12 1:45 PM I am making a jacket from 100% cotton twill. When I iron this fabric occasionally it creates a few shiny streaks in the cloth. I have tried with steam and without. I have tried different settings on the iron. Nothing seems to change this problem. I tried ironing on the wrong side of the fabric but when the streaks appear, they appear on both sides. Help! How can I flatten this fabric without creating the shiny streaks.
