Just bought some XPac V15 (no x grid). Had to be folded for shipping. Is there an easy way to get the fold lines out? Low temperature iron? Hot water? The worst one is right down the middle of the half-yard unfortunately!

<p style=”padding-left: 40px;”>I’ve recently started working with the same fabric as well… low temperature iron has worked well. Go slow and ease the folds out. Don’t try to go too hot! I went over it in a few passes, letting the fabric cool down between ironing. Works well!</p>
