I see complaints on the sewing boards about leaking irons and I thought I'd create a post about spray bottles. Back in the day our grandmothers used a shaker bottle filled with water while she ironed. Of course, they didn't have steam irons back then so they used what worked.
We have better choices than what our grandmothers had back in the day. The bottle I use happens to be a spray bottle used by hairstylists. It has a fine mist that doesn't saturate the fabric and it sprays continuously which is a great feature when you have a large area of fabric. If you have a leaky iron try using a hairstylist spray bottle, there are even some available in quilt themes.
