Demon Iron!

Last night I was making great progress on a present for my friend's daughter. 



My back was turned for a second when smoke started pouring out of my iron.  I switched the steam setting off and tried it on the ironing board - big mistake!


I quickly realised the iron had become possessed and went into super-nova heat.  I ran downstairs with it, trying to avoid the smoke alarms, and chucked it out the back door!


Don't be fooled by this innocent looking device!
 How annoying!  Lots of seams still to sew and press open, so I'm on the hunt for a new iron today!
