[Ansteorra-Textiles] New to Ansteorra, and without my fiber sources.

[Siren Song]

Being from Kingdom of the West and spoiled by the LA and SF fabric shops I can say I was fairly impressed with the wearhouse shops mentioned in the Dallas area. I have one suggestion though... if you are going in the hot months go early in the morning. Most of the warehouses don't have climate control and OMG we Kingdom of the West girls and our cousins to the south need gills in southern Ansteorra in the summer. (No slight on Tx)

Additionally welcome to Ansteorra! I am in Skorragardr (Shawnee, Oklahoma) If you are coming to Med Fair find me and say hi :D I will likely be with Namron's Baroness or the Royal Gauntlet Birds of Prey booth...

um....just a 
hint........the Steppes Warlord event will be over Memorial Weekend about an 
hour north and east of Dallas. (Canton, Texas)  If you can take the 
time.......there are several semi-wholesale fabric sales places that serve the 
designer market here. I'm afraid you won't find the kind of resources you had in 
LA anywhere besides NYC....but we do the best we can.........and you can take 
the cost of the trip off as a business expense

Hmmmm, well tulsa is about an 
  hour away, and I am gathering that I may need to start a merchanting booth to 
  get what I want at reasonable prices. ON the other hand this would have the 
  wonderful benefit of making going to events tax deductible as a business 
  expense.  Thank you for your help and good advice.

    most honored 
    Lady
    allow me to welcome you to 
    Ansteorra
     
    I fear you will find our broad 
    plains and green forests rather barren of textile merchants, especially 
    coming from the great markets and warehouses of  the fabled Barony of 
    the Angels. 
     
    My best suggestion would be 
    to travel to Tulsa (no idea the distance, just looking at a map and knowing 
    Tulsa is the nearest large city to you)
     
    even here, in the Barony of 
    the Steppes (Dallas) we do not have the resources you are accustomed  
    to.  The major fabric stores are Hobby Lobby, Hancock, JoAnns and 
    whatever local fabric shops you can find.
     
    again, 
    welcome

Good Morning to the good and gentle fiber 
      artisans of Ansteorra.

I landed on the shores of this fair kingdom 
      on Saturday and have
yet to locate anything in my area to replace my 
      known and "local"
suppliers.  Since I have come from Caid's 
      shores, it seems a better
and cheaper bet to develop sources in this 
      kingdom.

So I'm asking, what is available to be had for a not very 
      long drive
(hour and a half tops) from Nowata, Oklahoma?

My 
      local Barony is Northkeep and I am south of Chemin 
      Noir.

Help?
