Grateful, I suppose

[mmcnealy]

I suppose I should just be grateful that there is brocade fabric out there like that seen in so many of the Lucas Cranach the Elder's paintings

And not be bitching that its $71 a meter with a 10 meter minimum order


Talk about a period-style barrier to copying the fashions of the upper-crust. *big grin*

Of course there's lots of other 'almost good enough' brocades on there for much less, just not the one I want!

Uh, they may be based out of Calgary but they ship out of Russia.

I'd really love to see this stuff in person. I've seen other examples of their fabric in person and worked with them, and it really is nice stuff to work with.

kseniia_antir was the one who told me about the place and she has a coat she made with fabric from them. It is very nice - having a Russian persona helps too.

I must spend less money on photography and more on fancy fabric...
