@rek going in person to some kind of fabric/sewing/etc shop is something i'd recommend highly if you can. there are discount bulk/factory reject fabric places that are generally the best deal in that space if you can find one local; online definitely feels like a crapshoot in terms of like
> surprise! you hate some aspect of the feel or appearance of the fabric you just bought 20 meters of
but i appreciate that may be difficult from pino~
