I assume this survey is only relevant for USA , Here [ In Israel ]
things are a bit different, i usually find mt threads etc in a shop in
my neighbourhood , but in order to find cloth and `gadgets ` i have to
go to mid town [ where i am any way twice a week for other reasons] ,,
Since not everything published in mags is available here i just have a
habit of touring the vaeious shops from time to time, and find new
`things` !!!
I am sewing mostly skirts , shirts and dresses for me , i do a lot of
recycling my own clothes , I also sew part of my Fiberart.
