Online Buying

Yesterday I went to the barn-like chain fabric shop in the city.  It has been reduced in size and has less fabrics.  I was very disappointed but did manage to find some nice printed silk reduced from $30 per metre to $5 per metre.  Luckily this week I received some fabrics ordered online.  Here are the fabrics from two of my favourite online stores.

Australian KimoYES - vintage Japanese fabric for patchwork  The yukata fabrics can be bought by the metre but are only 32 cms wide.  I use them for skirts, trims on jackets, etc.  The kimono pieces I use as panels in tunic tops, cuffs and collars on jackets, etc.
