No avoiding...
The purple thing must be rebuilt... The 25th Ann one is sooooooo badly bleached from non-acid free storage boxes I can't stand to look at it. The previous one is just dead from exhaustion and el numero uno has just about turned to stone and I would never wear again any way. So WHY o WHY must I obsess over the fabric SOOOOOO much?! I have 3 options...the good weight but too dusty colored, the perfect color but linen (blech!) and the slightly too blue and a little lightweightish 100% polyester (creeps). I know I'm gonna end up going w the polyester...I'll never have to iron again!!! Check it in the stage lights and suck it up and just do it! New plastic, indestructible purple thing!
