Way earlier someone mentioned making a cheap fabric mockup before diving into the expensive fabric. I made a velvet dress nearly 2 decades ago but started with the lining, figured out All the tailored modifications on that before I cut any velvet.

Will you help me find & purchase this wool alpaca or sheep material in this color pattern combination & find an Amish seamstress to make my robe garment ? Send me an email so I can attach pics of what I require.

Thank you
