Hooper

I have decided that my wardrobe needs a bit of updating. However, I want the clothes to look like I want them to look. For the sweaters, such creating is not really a problem. For the non-knitted/crocheted clothes, I will need to a)get my sewing machine fixed, and b)bring said machine to my new abode.

Then there is the fact that I cannot afford the fabric, and that the fabrics that I want seem to be unavailable. The only place that I know of that sells a great variety of fabrics is in South Charleston, WV. Surely there is one up here, but the vast majority of the places that I have seen have been corporate and had cheesy fabrics from which to choose.

Where does one get real fabrics that are not meant for el-cheapo Hallowe'en costumes? I am perplexed. It must exist.

Hooper Writings, Thoughts and Happenings I was born in the late 1970s. I grew up in West Virginia, went to five different schools for undergraduate in three different states, finishing at the University of Pittsburgh. I had obtained degrees in English Literature and Film Studies, and had satisfied or nearly satisfied requirements for a multitude of minors. Then, upon realizing that I would need a day job in order to be able to chase my dreams in these two fields, I chose to go to law school. I am out of law school now. I live in Pennsylvania now. To know the rest you'll have to read on a bit.
