Re: [h-cost] h-cost] A strange question
Nope. It's another genre that may or may not appeal to goths - bit like emo. But steampunk is verging on mainstream now, so isn't really what it was.

Re: [h-cost] Blackwork pattern sought

I've misplaced the pattern for some blackwork that's in progress. I've checked everything I have at home and haven't turned it up. The pattern is a counted blackwork with acorns, oak leaves and trellis work that repeats in mirror image/left/right. It's not in Gostelow and not in the Blackwork Archives. I'm pretty sure it was from an online source. Everything else I've checked is a broken link. Any suggestions? Hi Julie.

It was kind of a quiet sub-genre that didn't get a lot of love until only a few years ago. And, unlike the common perception of Goths, black clothing is not universally worn by the Steampunk crowd.

[h-cost] shot silk chiffon and taffeta
Hello all, I really have no idea where to ask and I am so desperate in failing to find a EU-based (probably UK) supplier of SHOT (iridescent) silk chiffon and organza. There are UK designers who frequently use these in their designs and I have NO IDEA where they take it from...all suppliers I found only have a very limited range of colours. James Hare has only a few colours and bertrand silks aren't much better... Any ideas?
