Because I wear my own creations so often, I rarely deal with
the dreaded scratchy tag. I was reminded today
just how awful those edges can be – the back of my neck has a lovely raw spot
to prove it.
Generally, I am loathe to remove a tag from a piece of clothing (and I would never dream of doing that to a vintage piece),
but this was a contemporary knit dress that is nothing special. So that sucker is going to be removed. Death to nylon thread!
Drat, my seam ripper is hiding again . . .

Ahhhhh...the label that I hope to find each time I look in a vintage garment above all others (yes, I know the likelihood of unearthing vintage Dior in a small Canadian town is next to nil these days, but a gal can always hope). Still, as a fellow loather of scratchy tags, even if it was Dior, I too would carefully remove it, as that feeling just makes wearing a garment soooo unpleasant.
