I almost lost my breath, got out my dollar and left. I got the brown spots out with oxyclean...don't think it was rust;, washed her on gentle, put her in the dryer for 10 min and hung her to dry. Isn't she great?????
What a wonderful find!! She is beautiful and she was meant for you to find her!! :thumbup:
