Question
RoseRed
I was emptying out Mom's old hope chest and I found a gorgeous lace tablecloth that my Grandmother had made. There was only one place that needed to be repaired and it was along the edge. One of the knots came out. That's done.
A few of the ends are loose. Here's the problem. I tried to weave it back in and realized just how fragile this thread is. It broke right in my hand. This thing has to be 50 or 60 years old - if not more.
I have no idea how to clean it. It smells like a cross between cedar and mothballs. It's awful.
How am I supposed to wash this without destroying it?
