<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 4744367, member: 8363"]To embroider, you can use a frame that pulls the material tight, so you can work it more easily - push the needle through. That could be the reason for the extra material. The underlying material looks like linen to me. It is stained, so it needs to be cleaned before taking out the wrinkles. Do you have a specialty dry cleaner nearby? I have taken moldy silk embroidery for cleaning to a place that does it, and they got out the mold.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
