Hi..I just bought permanently crushed sheers for I hate to iron, however, when I took them out of the package, of course there were those dreaded packaged lines down them.....is there any way to get the lines out?....I have tried just hanging them over a door for a day or so, hoping the lines would fall out...but to no avail....anyone have any ideas? Thanks.....Kathy N.

Hi Kathy~
How about hanging them up in your bathroom the next time you take a steamy shower?

Or maybe toss them into the drier with a damp towel for just a few minutes?

Those fold lines were the one thing I used to hate about buying new fabric when I was making quilts. Even tho I always prewashed the fabric before using it, sometimes those lines did not disappear.

With the sheers, Zuzu's idea of in the dryer with a damp towel might work best.

Ditto... I would throw them in the dryer with a damp towel for a few minutes. Should take care of the lines Rolling Eyes
