If I ever an in a crunch and need silk I go to the wedding dress outlet. Most of the bridesmaids ($10.00) dresses use at the very least 5 yards of silk, wedding dresses use a lot more.
Now that I am in the pacific northwest I have to recreate my list of places to go. Wal-mart is not even on my radar as the closest one is over 45 minutes away while 7 other fabric type places are about 10 to 20 minutes away. But, not buying any more sewing ... stuff or fabrics until I unpack all my boxes ... it is gonna be like Christmas again! :D ♫ Chiara Francesca > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > On Behalf Of otsisto > Sent: Monday, August 11, 2008 1:13 PM > To: Historical Costume > Subject: Re: [h-cost] ...fabric stores going out of business > > There is always merchanting at SCA events. :) > Sitting pillows for those with Persian/Ottoman personas. > Wall coverings to add to the feasting atmophere. > Fabric for those who don't have fabric/upolstery stores near them. > Or the famous reason to shop and buy, you never know when one might > need > that type and that color of fabric and get it at that cheap o' price. > :) > > De > > -----Original Message----- > The question is, do I take advantage of their > misfortune and buy more fabric, or pass because I already have more > than > I need stacked in my sewing room now? > > Dawn > > > _______________________________________________ > h-costume mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
