I seem to have accidentally acquired an Annacat dress some 10 years ago which has been hanging around the back of my wardrobe with a tiny quarter inch hole along one seam where one of the children tugged it. I am not a clothes person at all but I am a history person and so I am a bit perplexed about what to do with it. Is it of historical significance in your opinion? Should I have it repaired and stored somewhere safe or is it okay to loan to friends etc. If it is 50 years old how does one even go about cleaning such a thing? so many questions! I just want to do it justice if you know what i mean.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-18276685560089765862017-05-24T11:19:33.201+01:002017-05-24T11:19:33.201+01:00You could be right, it's very covered up, isn&...You could be right, it's very covered up, isn't it? xxxVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-84697540694396434882017-05-21T19:33:44.286+01:002017-05-21T19:33:44.286+01:00I'm behind again, but I've been on nights ...I'm behind again, but I've been on nights all week so everything is out of sync.
