Just curious what are your allergy problems. After reading this I'm wondering if some of my symptoms are from unwashed fabric. I'm having some trouble focusing, my eyelids itch and I have a strange burning and swelling around my mouth. I thought it was drug side effects.
I get discouraged with all the raveling when washing the fabrics. Does anyone have a solution?
We don't have a Handcock's here, but in Texas when I went in I had the burning eyes and trouble breathing. I didn't go in very often because I was afraid my asthma would kick in. But the symptoms went away when I left the building.
I read somewhere that if you serge or zigzag across your fabric it won't ravel when you wash it. Someone else said they use pinking shears and cut it.
