Sewing question

[figmo]

I have a brocade made of acetate with laundering instructions to "hand wash in cold water and line dry."

Can I get away with not prewashing this fabric before using it? I ask because Warren has been buffing the dryer since 7:00 last night and is still at it.

Cool. This means when Warren goes to his parents' house tonight I can make the dress and not care. I'll just dry clean it.

As an aside, I have always wondered why anyone would want windows in a clothes closet.
