I don't know about more expensive fabrics but I've used regular shampoo to remove blood from clothing. There was a lot of blood - I was at the scene of a car accident involving a small child that these men just pulled from the vehicle and set down at the side of the highway. She had a cut on her head, which bleed a lot. I held her, putting pressure on the cut until the emergency people arrived. I ended up being soaked through because of rain and blood. Still a handwashing with shampoo removed the blood from one of my favorite sweaters.
I haven't had to test it on needlework or something I was sewing, so I don't know about smaller patches alex On Dec 13, 2007 1:29 PM, Leif og Bjarne Drews <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I remember i saw a tv programme from the workshop at Chanel where all the > work of the couturieres was shown. > It happened from time to time, that some of the ladies, stuck their fingers > and bleeded on the haute couture creations, but then they had a lady they > send for who emediately came and removed the blod stains. > What do you think they used? > I have often wondered about this, and also because sometimes it happens for > myself two. > What do you do? > > Bjarne > > _______________________________________________ -- "I'm buying this fabric/book now in case I have an emergency...you know, having to suddenly make presents for everyone, sickness,flood, injury, mosquito infestations, not enough silk in the house, it's Friday..." ;) _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
