HOW TO IRON MUSLIN. IRONING MUSLIN.

00:00 HI, I'VE BEEN WORKING AWAY WITH THIS 5 YARDS OF MUSLIN.
00:20 I'VE TAKEN 2 YARDS OUT OF THE 5, AND I CAN SHOW YOU THE 2 YARDS. I WOULD LOVE TO SHOW YOU THE 2 YARDS!
00:30 FIRST I EDGE STITCHED THE FABRIC TO PREVENT FRAYING WHILE IT WAS BEING WASHED & DRIED.
00:55 SO IT COMES OUT NICE & FLAT & EASY TO WORK WITH. IT DID STOP THE FRAYING BUT THERE WAS SOME MINIMAL AND THAT HAPPENS WITH DENIM AS WELL.
01:20 THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN IT COMES OUT OF THE DRYER. I PUT THAT IN THE WASHING MACHINE ON HOT WASH TO SHRINK IT. THEN I PUT IT IN THE DRYER ON HIGH HEAT.
02:15 ONCE AGAIN TO CLARIFY WHY WE'RE USING THIS; IT IS C$10.00 PER YARD. IT IS
02:35 IT IS EASIER TO WORK WITH. IT IS MORE MALLABLE THAN DENIM. IT'S SOFTER, EASIER TO LEARN ON.
03:20 FOR LEARNING HOW TO SQUARE THE CLOTH, TO A TRUE LINE, A PROOF LINE TO SQUARE TO 90 DEGREE ANGLES.
03:40 THIS CARPENTER'S SQUARE IS A 12" BY 8" SQUARE. THE BIG ONE IS A 24" BY 16" CARPENTERS SQUARE.
04:40 SOTHOSE ARE THE 2 TOOLS THAT I USE TO SQUARE IT UP. I ALSO SOMETIMES USE THEM AS WEIGHTS TO HOLD THE CLOTH DOWN.
05:00 I ALSO USE THE 12" TAILORS SHEARS AS A WEIGHT SOMETIMES.
05:35 THE OTHER THING I WOULD LIKE TO SHOW YOU IS HERE IS MY DENIM CACHE. THIS IS THE DEMIN THAT HAS BEEN HOT SHRINKED 7 IRONED. THIS DEMIN IS READY TO BE MADE INTO JEANS.
06:00 IT IT NOT SELVEDGE DENIM. IT IS REGULAR DENIM.
06:15 THERE IS SOME INTERFACING BUT I HAVEN'T USED IT YET.
06:30 I HAVE TO USE MUSLIN TO LEARN HOW TO BUILD JEANS.
07:00 THE IRONING STARTS! YAY!
07:35 STEAM CAN BURN! BEING SAFE=BEING HAPPY!
08:20 ENOUGH SAFETY TALK FOR NOW, LET'S HAVE SOME IRONING.
09:10 I AM HAPPY WITH THE SINGER STEAMCRAFT IRON. IT HAS AN EXTRA LONG ELECTRICAL CORD.
