Found Silk for $3/yd. and linen for $4/yd at the same place
(a shop in the nw corner... 2 up from a.b.c.) Of course, the
place south of a.b.c. has some really nice pearled silk at only
$129/yd. 8>

The most comfortable boning I've used were large plastic
cable-ties (from Home Depot), normally used on A/C ductwork.
Easy to work with, cheap, washable (don't rust), very comfortable.

I was planning to take my mother to the Fab. dist. for some
upholstery fabric (this Sat. AM). Looks like I'll see a bunch of
you there, too!
