My dearest friend here in NY, who I’ve known for practically forever, delights in buying fabric for me. He delivered today. Three tote bags full of fat quarters and one yard pieces – most of those are Christmas and Halloween fabrics. I actually brought my little cutting mat and rotary cutter with me because I knew he’d bring me fabric. And yes, I’m that much of a fanatic that I brought my little sewing machine that I bought at Aldi for $25 several years ago.
I’ve been perusing quilt block patterns since he left this evening. I’m thinking I’d really like to do a log cabing, a scrappy kind that doesn’t have to have the blocks all be the same. And here’s the dilemma – the fabric needs pressed. There’s an iron and ironing board in my motel room. i can’t move that bloody ironing board, so shall I put down a towel and use the desk? Or am I taking a chance on setting off the smoke alarm and getting tossed out? What to do?
I’m not that brave. I guess I’ll just choose fabrics and patterns and press when I get home!

Be brave! Iron on the towel on the desk!!! If you’re worried about it getting too hot, put a second towel down.
Get to pressing!!

I presume you have books with you? Lots and lots of books? You could press some fabrics under them while you sleep. (Or try to steam them in the shower?)

I only brought one book and I’m only here tonight and tomorrow night. I’ll survive- maybe – till I get home

It will give you something to distract yourself from the boredom of driving. 😊

You could always call the front desk to get the ironing board out….

I could but I wasn’t all that interested in pressing. 😂
