Don't have a mini iron like Alex's, but I have a Clover mini iron. Works well but it's dangerous! I can't use it without burning myself! I also use a Black & Decker travel iron. Its the perfect size for keeping next my machine on my sewing table. I use it with a pressing board I made out of a thrift store cutting board.

I don't have any of the dedicated small irons for quilters, but I use a very small travel iron. There are various different makes on the market and here in the UK you can find them in most department stores.

I do I order it throw Nancy I think

Just wondering if anyone else uses the Hobbico Mini Iron that Alex uses. There was a review on Amazon from someone that worked in a quilt store which sold the irons. She indicated that after about a year (when the warranty was over) they quit. The store stopped selling them. I'm looking for something more lightweight than my full size iron to use for applique. Any comments or suggestions?
