You're lucky. It's cold and very wet in the UK (and I have my first camping event of the season next weekend!) I've been too busy with domestic problems to do any dressmaking this year. I have a query, though.

I've been clearing my mother's house (she is now in a nursing home) and have found some vintage garments. I know you are supposed to store such things in acid-free tissue paper, but have no idea what kind of shops sell such paper. Any suggestions?

John Lewis in London used to sell it (in small packets) in their haberdashery department - they may still do so. Mine came through a museum contact of mine, (but it was a huge packet!) You could try asking your local museum?
