Ironing.

SueDonim are you my daughter ??

We split the ironing, I did it all once, but since his retirement my husband does his, I do mine, generally I also do the bed linen, although he's been known to iron a pillow case or two, Don't do fitted sheets, or tea towels, or knickers for that matter, but I have a friend who does

I think that this discussion has arisen a few times before? DH does all our ironing; only ironing those items which really need it. Many of our garments can be hung up after washing, to avoid ironing. And we never iron bed linen, other than a few cotton pillow cases.

But now I just iron my pillowcases and duvet covers And any of my shirts or dresses which require it

I loathe housework, find cooking a chore but quite like/don’t mind ironing. I remember a long time ago I used to have to iron minimum of 17 shirts a week!

Ironing what’s that? Since I don’t have a husbands shirts or kids at school I don’t have anything that needs ironing So very rare to ever iron anything

The last time I used my iron I had to dust both it and the ironing board first.

I do as little as possible these days.
When the children were young, and at school, I would listen to a play on the radio, whilst ironing, but not now.
DH irons his shirts.

It ends up sort of comme ça.

There might be an Anthea Turner video if I remember rightly.

I love ironing but that’s only because got steam generator flies through the task in mins, but saying that I don’t iron everything, most of these things I’ve bought for last few years don’t really need ironing, just the odd blouse skirts DH work clothes etc

I enjoy ironing because I can think my own thoughts while I do it. I iron pretty much everything.
As for fitted sheets Greenfinch, fold it in half width ways, slipping the corners inside each other. Fold in half again and you will end up with 4 corners inside each other. I iron as I go along.

I hardly iron anything anymore, the occasional dress or shirt that’s it. Oh and I have a linen skirt that requires damp ironing if I wear it.

I never iron anything apart from new clothes that have been folded up for ages and delivered to me. They often have very deep creases. There is no reason to iron anything else.

I don't iron underwear, tea towels or bedding - I think there's enough to do, without making more work for myself.

I iron shirts, blouses, trousers, t-shirts, dresses, etc., for 3 of us, and when the GC stay, I iron their stuff too

Ironing is the only household chore I really enjoy. I iron everything according to its label and I even iron tea towels and boxer shorts. I struggle a bit with fitted sheets though . Can anybody help ?

Until lockdown I sent most of the ironing out to an ironing service. For the last six months I have been doing the ironing myself, I iron everything apart from tea towels and underwear which are dried in the tumble drier. Once I get started I actually find it quite therapeutic.
