[h-cost] Re: Child's costume - Lappets
Anne Buck's 'Clothes the Child' has several index references to leading strings and hanging sleeves which seem relevant.

If you are looking for something other than fabric stuff and you like zoos, Chicago had 2 really nice zoos. You can't go wrong with either Lincoln Park or Brookfield, although Brookfield is larger.

The main Indian area in Chicago is on the Northside on Devon Ave between Western Ave. and California Ave. There's tons of sari shops, lots of Indian style jewelry shops, and fabulous Indian restaurants. Karen Seamstrix -- Pierre Sandy Pettinger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Susan, I third the recommendation for Vogue fabrics. Huge place with tons of stuff. You can check them out ahead of time: http://www.voguefabricsstore.comVogueFabricsStore.com Also check out the Sari district - I'm not sure where it is exactly (we were in a group), but I'm sure someone here can narrow it down. That was the place I finally found a salwar kameez set that was both in a color I liked and in my size (large - XL to XXL and tall - 5' 11) DH got a suit too. But it's not just limited to clothing - picked up lots of saris for fabric and fabric lengths also. HTH, Sandy At 09:47 AM 2/16/2007, you wrote: Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2007 19:14:20 -0500 From: Susan B.
