  Fabric SOURCES in Town

A good place to go and get fabric is at is the $1 yd store located at 12918 NW 7th. Ave. They have lots o' stuff, some good for your uses and some not so good, when in doubt ASK,they are nice there and will help you out. Another is "Linda Fabrics" 100 N. Miami Ave. (Downtown Miami) go to the 2nd. floor rooms they have lots of Natural fabrics but you must look for them. When in doubt ASK. Or you can go to the local "Joann's" or "Rag shop" or any fabric store. Look at the labels they have on the rolls they have $ and what material the fabric is made up of.

What you are looking for is Natural fabrics (cotton, linen, wool, silk) blend are ok (but not period) Natural fabrics breath in our HOT climate this helps. Polys and Satins look pretty but do not breath and make you sweat and get hotter. When in doubt ASK.
