Its now been several years since I purchased silk fabrics from you and hope that you are still in existence and still have your excellent samples and and mail order service!' Hope you can help again.
Hi Aruna,The fabric is for a wedding dress, and the bride has fallen head over heels in love with it, so we will have to wait for it. Many Thanks
Thanks so much, Shweta! It's always such a pleasure dealing with you. Thanks, as always, for your fast service and beautiful product!
I would like to thank you for sending the silk tulle to me so quickly following the receipt of my cheque. I am going for a wedding dress fitting on Saturday and was thrilled to be able to have the tulle in time!
Thank you! We picked it up from the post office Friday. It is beautiful. We have tucked it away in a closet, in a drawer so the kitty will not be tempted. It will be a lovely veil and I would like to thank you for being so attentive to our order. Thank you so much.
Just wanted to share a couple of photos before we head off on our honeymoon. The dress was a dream. Many thanks again.

'It's here! In my hands! And it's so beautiful. Thank you' Heather Texas USA -April 2011
I wanted to write and thank you for all your help recently when I made a wedding dress for my friend - we spent a couple of hours at least enjoying your hospitality ... and patience, while Heather deliberated over the colour of her bridesmaids. The a few weeks before the wedding you were very prompt in sending extra fabric when she decided she wanted more fabric in the skirt! I thought you might like to see the finished product - I also enclose a photo of the bridesmaids - the silks looked absolutely beautiful in the sunshine when we went for photos on the beach. Thanks again ... Helen Eldridge
Thankyou both so very much for all your help. You put yourselves out beyond the call of duty! The bridesmaids looked fab. God bless you Wendy
