Re: [lace-chat] Christening gown fabrics

Cotton and linen last a good deal better than silk. Silk over time 
can simply shred to nothing; synthetics turn crisp and ugly (take a 
look in a second-hand store at the old bridal or prom gowns!). If you 
use linen, be careful not to iron creases (such as the fold in a 
sleeve), or the fibers may break where they are folded and pressed so 
tightly.
