Thanks everyone for your responses to this. I'm going to try the dryer  
method and see how that works. Then, if needed I'll use the acetone. This is  
beautiful fabric and I figure if I lined it then it should work our.

But I do  plan on lining the whole thing. Wouldn't that work? Or should I  
iron  on a light interfacing to replace the latex backing?

My experience  with those fabrics, though, is  that they don't hold up well 
after  the backing is gone; they were never  intended to be durable without 
 
the   
backing.
