| My mother in law sent me a sari and material to make into a choli. Any suggestions for a seamstress in NOVA? |
| Can you drive up to NJ? Otherwise I would either wait til you go to India or order a new one. |
|
call india sari palace or priya's in MD for recs. or was that priti's? i cant remember. they are on university blvd in langley park. sonia's sarees (multiple locations) may know of seamstresses too.
NJ or India are your best options, however. |
can't drive to NJ and not planning on visiting my in laws in bangladeshi anytime soon... hmm wanted to get this done so that i can wear it to a wedding |
If your in Va, try Bombay Foods in Fairfax. It's a grocery store, but the lady there told me she makes cholis. They had a few there for sale so you can pick a design from them. They were pretty fancy so a bit expensive. I've not had any made there though so I can't give you first hand experience. |
| Can't you just wear the sari to the wedding? Any tailor that an Indian grocery recommends can make you a blouse. Hell my MIL in the middle of nowhere took one of my blouses and a yard of fabric to her dry cleaner and they copied it in her size. |
This might work if you have a blouse that already fits you well. Do you have one like that OP? |
unfortunately no |
Just ask at an Indian grocery store. Anyone can make a blouse. |
