Hardy girl cuddling Mae West -- that'll press the sheets! (7)
I believe the answer is:
seamset
'hardy girl cuddling' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'mae west that'll press the sheets' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'mae' is 'eam' which is within the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
