Yikes, time has not been my friend recently. It took 12 hours, over the course of 3 days, to finish my mom's bonnet. Came out dang nice in the end, but it better be worth it. I love the navy blue silk dupioni I got from High Fashion Fabrics - it's exactly the color I wanted (and the color that was pictured/described on eBay....grrr....)
I was so happy I got to make the pilgrimage to High Fashion Fabrics in Houston. It's about 50 miles from home, so I call it a pilgrimage. They had EVERYTHING in EVERY COLOR. Even real silk dupioni, for $15/yard (average price). They even had an extensive variety of bridal lace, among other things, which cost upwards of $120 yard! Yikes!
Even got to pet a designer wool for $350/yard. No, I didn't forget to put the decimal anywhere. $350 a yard! I'd hate to see what the whole designer sheep costs!
