You must have met a friend of mine. She with the marked weakness for above
mentioned fabrics with lots and lots of 19thC flower patterns. I'll pass
this on to her as she does high medieval before timetravel was invented.

I'd throw in something about polyester in the wool section. Never buy wool
with more than 30% polyester for one thing. And telling the difference
between polyester and wool. Not easy at all. I have a few fabrics from the
famous polyester sheep. The weave and colors are perfect. I just didn't
know how to tell the better polyester from wool when I started out.
And if you get around to it, a short list of when you used some of the
shiny beautiful synthetic fabrics. Which 60's/80's ? 1360's, 1460's or
1960's/80's ?
