Hello Sabella, 
I'm getting ready to meet with our designer about the next batch of new Folkwear patterns, which will be based on traditional ethnic garments. I'd love it if you could be a bit more specific about what kind of patterns you'd like; maybe we can come up with something that will be appealing to you and lots of other folks. Thanks so much for your interest in Folkwear! -- Kate Mathews, Mgr.

     Hello;I am a costume who also dances....middle eastern dance.I find it virtually impossible to find decent ethnic patterns for Turkish or other middle eastern styles from the middle ages.Most of what I see, is geared to the Cabaret style flashy dancers or styles that evolved in the 1800's.I wonder if you realize what a huge audience that you are missing? I talk to many members of the Society for Creative Anachronismhttp://www.sca.org   that wear middle eastern.   Patterns would be nice... and our merchants at Pennsic, Gulf Wars, Estrella, Lillies, and online I know would carry themI already own many of your patterns, and everything ethnic you have. thanks for listeningSabella
