    Thanks Marie! Now I know what a bodkin is and no longer need to use a large safety pin!

    I have a wool blanket my mom had someone make from wool coats she sent away to be made into blankets. I was about 8 years old or 72 years ago.
    I am going to try this wonderful project to now repurpose the blanket. It has been in the cedar chest all these years.
    Thank you for sharing this wonderful idea.
    I have a box of tricks like your bag of tricks. I also have enough of the silver fabric to make a new top if my current one shrinks... I could also air dry it.
    You are so thoughtful to share this great idea.

    this was very helpful - have never seen an angry hook before - very useful!

    Very nice. I love the resourcefulness of using up every bit of pieces left from previous projects. You now have an "ironing board cover of many colors" 😊

    I love that ironing board cover! I thought I was the only one who had multiple layers on my ironing board! I think it irons better when it’s soft and a little bit spongy. I have an old tiny wooden ironing board that I like very much because it’s longer. I also found a really cool, very small kind of industrial iron. It’s the kind that has a lid that you pulled down, but it’s much smaller than the larger ones I’ve seen. I’d like to make a cover for that too. Thank you so much Marie this is really a mighty fine post.

    I showed the last couple of minutes of this to my husband as I was intrigued by those "angry hooks". He hadn't heard of them either, but they're exactly what I need to keep my ironing board cover in place! Guess what we'll be searching for online tomorrow... 😁
    Thank you for a really helpful and interesting video, Marie!

    The cat will love the wool. I need to make a new cover as I can no longer buy the proper one. However, it is because I have a (actually 2 as I have my mother's) Sears ironing board from the late '50's/early'60's which has a lever that makes it either the shape of yours or extends flanges to make it a rectangle. I cannot tell you how much I love this ironing board. Usually it is in the rectangular mode and only occasionally do I slide the flanges in for a particular use when ironing tops of pants, etc. I know the silver fabric is available.....now to actually get it.

    If you wet your silver cover can you stretch it out to fit your ironing board?

    Marie, I think you are mistaken, we are in fact under the ironing board to see your cat. Seeing your beautiful work and the bottom of your ironing board was simply a wonderful bonus 😂❤

    This is great! My ironing board is a smaller length
    so it’s sometimes hard to find the perfect size cover.
    Thank you so much!

    Thank you for sharing this! I love the idea of using wool for the cover! Brilliant! I’ll be replacing my ironing set up soon and now plan on sewing up a wool cover for it. 😀 i plan to follow your leas on using a cord instead of elastic.

    Just in time! I need to replace my ironing board cover and was wondering what to do! I love your wool idea! Those are EXPENSIVE to purchase! And it's good to know that I can keep layering my covers! Also, cute black kitty!
