*sigh* I don't even think it looks that bad in the pictures...if it was someone else posting it, I'd tell them so too. The close up didn't even show the extent of the puckering and screwed-up-ness.
I'm going to try ironing it and stretching the heck out of it...But I don't want my mother in law to have to keep up such high maintenance every time she washes it! I'll see how it does to wash and hang to dry...if it is still all screwy, I'll have to think of something else for her...
