    I would love to win the new Oliso “dream” iron for my “dream” daughter-in-law, Jan, because for Jan, unbelieveably, ironing is her therapy, and she needs a lot of therapy these days. Jan works full time, has three teenagers, and her husband lost his job about a year ago. Jan is such a blessing in my life, as well as a blessing to everyone who knows her. Nothing would please me more than to give her a new Oliso to “up her therapy a notch”.

    I saw this Oliso iron at the sewing expo last year and was totally blown away with it’s performance. Of course at that time my iron was working just fine. I am now looking to replace said iron and this Oliso would be just perfect!

    Would so love to win this iron. With my carpal tunnel and complex regional pain syndrome the ergonomic handle and its ability to do “push ups” would be an awesome relief to my hand. Could get more quilting done. Plus, yellow matches my sewing room. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

    I would like to win the Oliso because I have wanted this iron for a very long time. I watch various quilt shows and they often use it. I like the little feet and how Oliso automatically steams and will shut off when you are done using it. Oh, and I forgot to mention, the Oliso does NOT drip water when you use it! I’m a quilter and do a lot of pressing so the Oliso would be just great for my sewing room !

    I would love to win this iron because I run a craft group at my church and we have lots of fun making quilts, prayer shawls and rug hooking kneelers. We would really appreciate a fabulous iron to make our creations nearly perfect. We quilters enjoy doing your block of the month and I am sure Henrietta would like to be pressed with an Oliso iron so please please please choose the St Francis Craft Group for this fabulous iron We are a great group of ladies kind of like the Friday night knitting club Thank you very much !! >^..^<

    These irons are fabulous…a good friend has had hers a long time and will probably be buried with it….along with her quilting stash! Why should she have all the fun?! I’d love to have one! Love your site and pictures of the critters are wonderful!

    What an incredible iron! I have NEVER seen anything like this, kudos to Oliso! I would love to replace my current iron that fell off my ironing board, and sent parts flying all over the place… namely the dial and spring which controls the thermostat. My iron now has a mind of it’s own and decides when my task is finished. Why haven’t I replaced it? Well, it’s a Rowenta and it happened right after I purchased it! Needles to say, I would LOVE to win this iron, and show my current iron exactly who the boss is!

    Why do I need that awesome iron? Once a month (sometimes for two days) 11 of us rent the old train station for a day of sewing, companionship and laughter. The tables and chairs are there but we bring everything else. The cutting boards, ironing boards and irons. Currently we have two irons that are our ‘station’ irons. One overheats and smells atrocious and the other doesn’t seem to get hot enough. No one wants to hurt the owners feelings so we make do. The Oliso iron looks amazing and winning it would be a great way to introduce a new iron to our group. Thank you so much.

    I love this iron! If I should be lucky enough to win it I could give my Sunbeam to my daughter Katie (who has taken possession anyway) and finally get something done! It is like you believe that if you only had an Oliso everything would magically finish itself! I would love to win – and beyond that, all of my ufo’s would love me to win!

    I love Moda fabric. I’ve made a few pillows for family and friends and they are quick, easy, and fun. All of the pillows are great and I like seeing what each designer comes up with.

    A nice idea.
    I know most of these designers but not all of them. This will give me an opportunity to discover them.
    I like surfing on blogs, I often find inspiration and take advantage of the tips and tricks.
    Though living in France, I mainly purchase my fabrics, patterns,… from the US.
    Thank you Anne.
    Have a good day.
