That's OK. It's in the wash already.
If tailboo does not tell me that he/she wants the material I will be happy to send it to you. I'll let you know by Monday morning.
PS: About the fraying: It does not fray more than some of the cheaper brands of cotton. You'll see. You may have to use some sizing or starch to work with it. It does have the slight natural roughness of silk. The color hues are on the medium - dark side.
