RE: [lace] Follow up on stains email
For your blood stain, if you haven't already washed it, your own saliva will dissolve the blood. Just suck it and see! Jean Nathan in Poole, Dorset, UK. Since then I had some dental work and have since found a small blood spot on the shoulder of a blue cotton blouse, so would things like vanish rubbed in remove it now it has dried on?

On second thoughts it might not be that simple because the blood has dried, but worth a go. It definitely works for fresh blood, but must be the saliva of the same person as the blood.

Re: [lace] Follow up on stains email (2)
I did have to laugh about the chocolate as I could see it in my head. sorry, really not laughing loudly,, well actually I did. But on the personal front I have a condition called Sjogrens Syndrome and it means I dont have any natural saliva to use. I use water, pastilles and artificial saliva sprays to help but that wont be of use to remove blood stains off my blouse, so I think I need to make some sort of paste with washing liquids of one sort or another. Thank you for the suggestions folks and I am sure this will be of use for someone out there. (Non chocolate eating at the time:-) ) Have fun at the conference all of you.

Try hydrogen peroxide first. I've seen it recommended in books.

I tried the vanish granuals and it didn't shift, so I used my normal clothes washing liquid neat on the stain. I worked it with my finger tip and it went. Blouse now washed in the machine and I will take it out to dry in a few minutes. Sue Try hydrogen peroxide first. I've seen it recommended in books.

Beware as hydrogen peroxide is a bleach and can also damage fabrics. Basically it's what used to be used to put blonde highlights in hair L Sent from my iPhone On 12 Jul 2014, at 12:42, Cynce Williams cyncewilli...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Try hydrogen peroxide first.

Thank you to several people who advised me of ways to remove the oil stains off of the carpet, which is now clean and looking good. Since then I had some dental work and have since found a small blood spot on the shoulder of a blue cotton blouse, so would things like vanish rubbed in remove it now it has dried on? Now for the lace content, I am going to be working on some bridal lace (ring pillow, garter, that kind of thing) in the coming year for two brides with an italian connection so I am wondering if there is anything special that might give it that little italian edge. I have no idea about Italian lace so any ideas would be helpful. I have experience of Torchon Lace, Beds, Bucks, tape/braid lace and a tiny bit of Milanese but not much else.
