Two weekends ago Joel, I and Suchitra from his work went out to do some material and clothes shopping. It was MUCH fun and so many pretty things to choose from! I got some clothes ready made, but being a big American girl makes finding anything wide enough in the shoulders a pretty big challenge!
Suchitra was instrumental to our success. We haven’t found a tailor yet. I have some directions so that is good.
OH MAN!! One mall we went to had MANY fabric shops. Floor to ceiling with tiny isles, bolts packed in. BEAUTIFUL Fabrics. You just point and they clime on counters or what ever they have to do to pull a bunch down for you.

We went to other stores where the bolts are 3 fabrics. One for the top, pants and scarf. SO MANY to choose from that were AMAZING!
Below are picturess Joel took of what we purchased in total.
The black draped accross and red in the middle left are scarves.
The middle bottom white and blueish are fabrics for yet to be made shirts
The blue and green in the middle are fabrics that will be turned in to suits. See below.
Pictures does not do the fabric, embroidery or the FEEL of these fabrics justice.
These will turn in to dressy suits with pants, shirt and scarves from the long piece. The Gold are the embroidered beads. It will be fun to see them when they are all done!
