Got any requests? I could send you a parcel. They've got pretty much everything you can imagine, in all colors. :D So far, I haven't asked about an item the owner didn't pop back with five minutes later.

Not as fun as finding it yourself, but if you want me to grab something/ mail it, let me know.

Oh, oh, so hard to decide, they don't happen to have a website? Ah, something that's easy to mail... do they have vests? Like, with patterns stitched in? And, and... I'll give it some more thought.

Vests. Got it. I'll look for vests with abstract stitching!

Do they sell these ? I don't know what they're called in English. (In German it's 'Borte') I could use some of those. I don't know yet what for, but I know I can use them. I adore them. I like abstract patterns, nothing floral.

Google translates it as "edging." What are they used for?

Ah -- it's good you said that, because I thinking of sari material. Astrid, if it's a kind of trim, I'll see what they have.

Like Cyn said, it's an embroidered band. They're stitched onto cloth as decoration.

Gotcha. I'm glad that Cyn could score some for you.

Oh, wait, I think I know what these are -- a kind of embroidered band. They use them on the yokes and cuffs of tunics and things, right? I didn't see any on previous trips, but I'll dig around.

Exactly. Thanks for looking, these thinks are really expensive in the shops.

Got some! Embroidered bands, I mean. Also found a vest you might like -- it's teal and moss colored applique, stitched.

You aren't by any chance interested in a puffy shirt, are you? I bought it because the seamstress was being really helpful, and she went on and on about how the tiny pleats were a lost art. It looks kind of slavic. Up to you. :)

Oh, wonderful. Thank you so much.

As to the shirt, I like ethno-look so I'm indeed interested in the puffy shirt. (Unless it's snow-white. Can't wear white, washes out my skin.)

It's white, but has a lot of colorful stitchwork. I'll send it along just in case. I'll mail the box tomorrow.

Oh wow. This is so great. I have a thing for beautiful fabric with embroidered patterns. Also, blankets. I'm collecting blankets. ;) Dude, how much did you spend? I got my paypal account working again (provided this time I can remember my password). Also, is there any, like, German specialty you have set your eyes on, which I could get you?

Oh, heavens, nothing worth speaking of. Don't worry about it! I'm just glad a few more bits from that awesome sale are getting a home.

The only things I can think of at the moment are edible and difficult to mail, like creamy pastries or interesting mustards. :D But you'll be sure to send me an autographed copy of Muppet!Angel when it's out, I hope?
