Help! Cushion is wrinkled!

Lesson learned - Never forget this and don't be afraid to put it
on a contract and have the customer sign it.

"Not responsible for end product and no warranty when using customer
supplied materials."

Life lesson learned -

Always charge double for "rush" jobs. Something always goes wrong
and you spend twice as much time doing it.

Just a thought here. I've used some coarse weave fabrics and they all
seem to have had a heavy coating on the back. This was to help it
keep it's body. With handling the backing would crinkle and heavy
white lines would show up at fold creases.

Not to be insulting but you might want to check that you didn't flip the
inside and outside of the fabric. It's probably happened to all of us. In
a rush it would be easy to do because the coating isn't always visibly
obvious.

I got up this morning and tried ironing with the wet cloth idea and it took most of the wrinkles out!  Thanks for everyone's help with this!  This is a designer who is going to feed us a ton of work over the winter and I want our first jobs with her to be perfect!  Actually, I want all of our jobs to be perfect!  Again, I really appreciate it!

You know, odds are that if that material wrinkled that easily (while working with it), it's going to wrinkle when they sit on it anyway.
It sounds like you've done all you can do with some crappy COM.

Regarding the water stain mentioned..do not use tap water as it may have a high lime /salt content use only distilled water for steaming..it helps keep the steamer clean too.

Thanks Dave.  We actually have a $3000.00 water filtration system that makes our tap water as good or better than bottled water.  With the cloth between the iron and the cushion, I hope I won't have to worry about spots.
