haha...so far, i have never experienced burning my clothes or even my husband's clothes! i am very careful with this thing... yes coz as you know, he just have few clothes! haha just kidding! i don't burn clothes even accidentally coz the iron that i am using is an automatic one, and if i feel that its too hot, i don't put it directly to the clothes...when i am ironing clothes with delicate fabric, i put it under another fabric...something like that... i really have to be careful with his clothes specially to those clothes that he uses in his duty...you know... so next time be careful my friend, pay attention while ironing...

So far, i have not burned any clothes while ironing.. hehe ^_^ Though i'm taught since young, but i have always been careful for i'm ironing my own uniform.. lol =D If i were to burn any of them, i wont have any uniform to wear, and have to end up being scolded by teachers.. haha =D As i grow older, i dun really iron as much because i dun have much things to iron, and my uniform for work, is just casual wear.. lol =D Even if i'm wearing for the family, i will be even more cautious for i wont wanna spoil their clothes too.. lol =D

when i do ironing for my husband's shirt,at that time i have burned because of too much of heat i think and too big wholes occured on shirt. from then onwards i will be scare of doing ironing.but i will do any time. for ironing , it doesnt cost more when we give outside shop people .just a few cents for one shirt and pant. so we are giving outside only ,instead of doing in house,not because of i have burned .

I think I have burned one of my office pants, and a blouse. LOL. I have not burned any clothes that are not mine.. ( thank goodness for that ).. though I have managed to put a big yellow stain on one of my sister's white blouse,. I was supposed to wash it, so I soaked it overnight.. but the next day, I did something else and I totally forgot about the clothes, so after 2 days, when I saw the clothes, the color of my yellow blouse already stained the other white blouse. lol. My sister was like angry for a couple of minutes, and after that she totally forgot about it. hehehe.

@Acie - nope it's actually my younger sister's blouse. hahaha. so she can't really be angry at me for a long time.. cause I'm the one who cook our meals.. and she won't be eating anything if she remains angry. hahaha. @abode - oh, that is one long post.. but sadly though, some blouses here, specially those that we buy in tiangges ( what is the english term for a tiangge anyway?! ).. they don't have that tags, actually most clothes here don't have any tags.. I really don't know why. ehhehehe.

Dear Acie, Once, my own nice white blouse. Nearly burnt, left the ironed mark there. I am so sad Surprisingly, after a few more wash, the mark was gone. I am so happy. Nowadays, I am more careful. I will focus when I am ironing, no more watch tv or chit chatting!

I am impatient, certain texture of clothes need different heat / power! I always put the iron on 2nd highest, it is not suitable for my thin blouse. Few minutes only, left the iron on it and chat with my sister. Imagine the iron mark there!..Glad that it is back to normal now!

I have burned clothes only once and that wasnt definitely mine, may be my sister's hi hi. It was her blouse i think. I do not do a lot of ironing so that thing isnt bound to happen quite often. Still I am very cautious while ironing. I begin by chekcing the temperature and check it on a cotton cloth first.

For me wrinkle prone pure cotton clothes are the most difficult. Light cotton and light silk are the easiest to iron. It hardly takes any effort. Also there is no need to iron gorgette or crepe hi hi but our weather is such that we cant wear them often. Cotton is the best for us. I am a big lazy girl who do ironing only on those portion which is visible to others hi hi. Also as I said, checking the degree of hotness before ironing does help a lot. It is the best preventive measure I know of.

I don't think I have burned some clothes while doing ironing, maybe because I'm too focus doing it, lol. Ironing is one my least favourite chores in the house and I only do this once a week and I try do it faster, lol. And hopefully I will never burn some clothes in the future!

Hi Acie, So far, I never experience burning any ironed clothes before and I hope this thing won't happen to me too. I always iron the clothes very carefully,make sure they are all tidy and neat before I keep them in the cupboard. I do ironing once a week.I did use some water spray to the clothes before ironing and it really make my ironing job more easily. I only iron my husband's pants and clothes plus my own one. For pyjamas , I never iron them at all.

And another time when I was ironing my school uniform, my sister jumped in and scared me, so i dropped it on my foot. I still have the scars to prove it!

I never "burn" my clothes, although I usually leave white marks on them from the iron being too hot. But then again, on the cool setting..I can't seem to get the wrinkles out! So I usually just set it too high. Thankfully I actually work at a dry cleaners, so I can usually get my things ironed for free (although I'm only allowed 2 items per day). I have pretty much given up on ironing. Most of my blouses are frilly or chiffon and don't need to be ironed. My pants, jeans, and dress pants on the other hand.. Really look much better ironed.

My very first paid job was cleaning for my neighbor... I burned a very expensive silk shirt... He decided I needed to practice ironing before I ironed anything else important and so I ended up ironing a basket of socks... It sucked but he paid me to do it
