      YES (I think, anyway?) Congru -- its got to be for ironing pleats/ruffles/stuff like that?? When people actually ironed their clothes, that is. . . ??? ;-) :-)

      I've never seen anything like it either, BTW -- *so COOL*!!! (or, well, it'd really be HOT or it wouldn't work, but y'all know what I mean...) :-) :-) :-)
