I can go into NYC and get medium weight 60" wide pure linen in any color I want for approx $8/yd.
I can also go to the local fabric store and find appropriate weave cottons for chemises.. $8.50/yd. One thing I am really looking for is light weight wool for under $10/yd. Even better if it is white or very very light colored. Katheryne On Sun, Mar 10, 2013 at 4:34 PM, Simone Bryan <cil...@dracolore.com> wrote: > So what specific information are you looking for?
