How To Change A Sow's Ear

The Silk Road

Dreaming of that bed stacked high with yummy, shiny pillows? This speciality shop has without a doubt the most wonderful array of fine fabrics for making clothing or crafts. The silks, of course, are outstanding - luscious dupioni, sexy charmeuse, demure chiffons, and on and on. But fine linen and cottons are available, too, as well as a nice selection of decorative buttons.
