Many thanks to all those who offered solutions. You'll be glad to hear that finally Swarfega has won! I rubbed a load into each stain and left for a couple of hours then did a hottish wash with Ariel and one leg has cleared completely with just a couple of patches left on the other leg. This I can live with and will retreat at the next wash to try and clear those. What a relief! Now I have to sort out the blue jeans that have acquired stains (- don't ask!) and I'll be trousered for a while!
Now perhaps I can get on with the Milanese Madonna and Child for a friend who is celebrating her Golden Jubilee of taking her vows as a nun. I have till July but I need a time scale to push me into getting on with it! Thanks again - I knew I'd get help from 'the gang' on Arachne. I really don't know what I'd do without my daily read. After all I've been a member since at least 1996 so it's part of my life! Lynne. Lynne Cumming Baldock, North Herts, UK email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Never try to teach a pig to sing.
