It&#039;s such a shame that chemical/metallic-dyed fabrics just seem to destroy themselves no matter what you do. I have a lot of salvaged motifs cut from destroyed black lace but this is my first &quot;full&quot; piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m a little wary of trying to patch it up because it&#039;s scarily fragile and the last thing I want to do is make it worse. If it was really interesting or unique then I&#039;d try harder to save it, but in the end, no matter how beautiful I personally find it, it&#039;s not the only piece of antique Spanish lace in the world. I&#039;ll probably end up cutting out the motifs. The big central one with the three flowers is salvageable and would look really pretty in a glass frame.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
