Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover
Best Boy Pressing Cloth
Scorch No More! With The Best Boy Pressing Cloth.
The Best Boy Pressing Cloth Is A Generous Size
You’ve just scorched your best garment. How do you feel? Annoyed, angry, upset, infuriated, irritated. All those emotions at once, I bet.
Scorching and burning clothes is very easy to do. I used to do it all the time. Set your iron a little too high and your delicates or synthetic fabrics melt and crinkle in an instant. You can scorch a cotton shirt by wetting it too much and leaving the iron on it a few seconds too long.
Has that happened to you too?
What about the logos on your T-Shirts? They melt under my iron. Yours too? And are fabrics that shine, like your business clothes, a problem? Ironing without scorching or burning clothes is possible. Even if you’re ironing in a hurry, and at the last minute.
The solution is a pressing cloth.
The logo is there for a reason. Iron on the logo side so the underside stays clean for your clothes.
But not all pressing cloths are equal. I thought they were, but too many customers asked us to make them one. So we did.
The Best Boy Pressing Cloth is different because it’s made to exacting quality standards that you don’t see today.
Such as
1 The fabric is all natural, 100% seeded homespun. Robust enough to absorb the heat but light enough to see the shape of your garment.
2 At 25cm x 75cm (10″x 30″) it’s ideal for pressing ties, trousers, scarves, woollens and T-Shirts.
3 Hand frayed around all the edges so there’s no seam or hem to mark your clothes, or lint to mess up your finished garment.
4 A stylish laundry proof logo lets you know to always iron on that side so the side in contact with your clothes stays clean.
5 Safe to use. All natural. Not chemically treated.
At $7.95 plus postage and handling, it’s worth a try. Think of it as insurance for your pants…..and other things. I know you’ll never regret it.
There’s no extra postage if you include it in your parcel with The Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover.
It’s been a pleasure to show you how the The Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover, Superior Felt Underlay and Best Boy Pressing Cloth can help you with your ironing.

Roger & Betty,
How nice to hear from you.
Polder is a very sturdy board and worth hanging onto. Flimsy boards are now as big as issue as flimsy ironing board covers.
The standard Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover will fit your board. Your board is slightly larger than an Extra Small. All you’ll need to do when you put it on is adjust the length of the tension cord, which I’ll give you instructions with your order. It will take you about 10 seconds to do it.
I’m giving you the link back to The Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover page so you can choose just the right colour for you from the colour palette. Simply scroll down the page until you see it.

From there, you can navigate to every other page, including the You Can Place Your Order Here page.
It’s always a pleasure to be able to help and I look forward to hearing from you again.
And thank you so much for visiting my website.
All the best,
Carol
Hello from the US! We have a perfectly good Polder ironing board that was made in West Germany (a classic!), and it looks like the day we bought it. Sadly, Polder no longer makes covers for it. The size is 12″ wide by 44″ long and it has a blunt nose. What do you suggest in terms of size?
Many thanks.
JILL,
Thank you so much for letting me know this.
Buttercup is so cheerful. Just like you!
I’m sure the cover will shorten the time it takes you to look superb for your next public speaking engagement or media appearance.
Once again, thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to leave a comment. Much appreciated.
Take care,
CAROL
Hi Carol,
Thanks so much for the ironing board cover! I had been delaying getting one (maybe something to do with ironing!).
I love the Buttercup colour. I was very impressed with the service, the parcel AND, of course, the contents.
I would suggest that anyone needing an ironing board cover, go straight to the Interface website and order one. They would make a great gift for friends and family too.
Jill
BEVERLEY,
Rita will be very touched by your comment. Thank you very much. From her. And me.
Take care,
CAROL
CAROL,
How wonderfully exciting. I feel as though I have stepped into another realm, that of a fairytale, where there lives a dignified queen in a beautiful house on an enchanted meadow by the dam.
Her family love her so very much, they tender to her security and comfort; and her friendliness is so magnetic she attracts the best of friends to sip and sup with her within reaching distance of the filtered shade of the scribbly gums.
Congratulations to all concerned. This is a success story, all about love and care.
Rita’s birthday is on the same day that my Mother-in-law’s was. That is, 20 March. But my Mother-in-Law’s life began in 1913, (because she was 30 when my husband Terry was born in March 1943). Her name was Hette Clara, which did sound as though she was a ‘Hen’, so she had everyone call her Betty instead! She was married to a Victor Wilfred Stowe, from Chelmsford, England. Most of their married life was lived out in Campbell Street Leichhardt. So I can see a couple of apparent similarities here, can’t you ?
I can see a certain expression in Rita’s countenance that displays a feeling of self assured satisfaction and contentment. I’m not sure if it is directed to the photographer, the supporter in the background, or her fondness of Daisy Mae. But it is very positive and reassuring. Or maybe her expression is saying, ” this is me, and my family’s success, together with their love and care, has bestowed great blessings upon me”.
Look closer, and I see a beautifully crotchered rug. It is the same kind as the knee rugs made by our “Betty”. I have 4 we treasure, which she left behind. (they’re in my linnen press now and come out in the winter.)
Betty survived Victor by several years, and she passed on in 1996,( the same year of Rita’s and Dio’s 50th wedding anniversary). She was 83. A very sweet lady. Our son Shaun bought and still lives in their unit in Hornsby, out of sheer sentimentality.
Rita would have been married when I was only 3. And I have been ironing on the “Fitz Like a Glove” covers she helped to instigate, for the last 15 years.
I think we may have similar tastes in top quality music, (if her remarkable Opera going friend from Stanley Street is any indication). I was an Opera buff myself when I was blessed with such good company over a certain period in my life.
Rita, Anson Austen, whom I think sang opposite Dame Joan in her final performance, lives only a stone’s throw away from me.
OH YES, it can be so exciting when we take the time to look at life and relish the tapestries of our past.
And it can be so exciting to look ahead with hope for the future if it is enriched with quality friendship.
Thankyou Carol, for replying to my comment, and enlightening me so enthusiastically about such a wonderful lady, called Rita Pleshov.
BEVERLEY
BEVERLEY,
Rita will love reading this! I’ve printed your comment so she can read it for herself.
She’s 83 on 20th March. She’s outlived all her family. Her sister died at 82. Her husband at 78 and her parents in their late 60′s.
But only 3 of her friends have died during her 9 year tenure in Ilford.
She’s the youngest. Her friends are now in their 80′s and 90′s and one in particular, Lucy, who is in her 90′s, who lives in Stanley Street in Sydney, still goes by herself to attend the opera at the Opera House.
One of my most amazing – and memorable – experiences was her 50th wedding anniversary.
She and Victor’s father, Dio (they’re Russian), were married overseas and emigrated to Australia in the 1950′s to escape Communism. As did all their friends.
At their 50th wedding anniversary celebration, in 1996, which was held in the intimate reception rooms of a lovely boutique hotel in Sydney, the MC introduced the happy couple, and then proceeded to, one by one, introduce the members of their original wedding party in 1946.
As each friend walked down the aisle, as they would have done in 1946, Victor whispered to me that only one member of their wedding party was missing. Still alive. Living in San Francisco and unable to attend due to his commitments as a professor at the University of California, San Francisco.
In the beginning, when she still lived in Sydney with Dio, Rita was quite bemused about her role in the creation of The Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover.
But when her husband, Dio, died, we moved her to Ilford to live in her own house designed by Victor. It’s surrounded by tall Scribbly gums, and fronts a beautiful meadow that flows down to a big dam. She lives about 400 metres from our house on our property.
It’s called Meadow House, complete with name plaque on the front porch.
As a local resident who was also Victor’s mother, she became quite famous. Which startled her at first. As she had no idea of our standing in the local community.
Nor the impact The Fitz Like A Glove™ Ironing Board Cover had on so many people.
As a large proportion of the local community irons on this cover, they knew the story of the cover and were eager to meet her.
It helped her make instant friends at an age when that might be difficult to do.
Needless to say, she adjusted quickly! And now basks in the reflected glory of her role in a successful product.
Beverley, thank you once again. Rita will be thrilled to read your comment.
Take care,
CAROL
Meadow House. The shaded front porch faces north east and hosts many cups of tea in the morning.
Meadow House. The rear view that looks out to the meadow before it. The side porches host many afternoon teas for visitors.
A special message for Rita,
At last I can see the lovely lady responsible for planting this most precious “seed” in your haven at Ilford. Let me say it’s a warm focus and beautiful smile that I see in your photograph Rita.
I’m only sorry that such a successful and helpful product range had to arise from your painful Arthritis. However, you look splendid now, as do the revolutionised “dressings of ironing boards”! Thankyou to you, your clever son Victor and his supreme lady, Carol, for solving the world’s paramount ironing problems; probably the most universal, domestic, common issues on earth.
Now isn’t that something to be totally proud of ? Yes, it definitely is.
Please give Daisy Mae a special pat and hug for me. She is the spitting image of my memory of “Laddy”, a loyal Collie who lived just across the road during my childhood. His master was severley disabled from Polio. I never saw them apart.
Soon it will be March, and your 83rd birthday. May it be very special and profoundly happy, with many more healthy years to follow. I’m wondering what date, because my family has had a whole string of landmark dates in March. It must be a special month.
Well Rita, thankyou again for your part in history, my home, and now my heart.
BEVERLEY
