I'm looking specifically for someone who is familar with Sari's to make me a basic underslip and top. I have the fabric. ( poly chiffon & cotton blend lining ) trim and my sized pattern if needed.

I would also like my Sari draped on me pleated and stitched to my underskirt, so I can just get into it like a skirt.

If you think you can help are legit and have references that I can verify or a Campbell business please reply.

I've gotten some insane quotes. Wondering if I can do better.

Thanks ,

Kali

I found someone who was referred to me through a Sari shop in Fremont. I'm all set. Prices much more reality nbased than those I'd previously gotten. I'd be happy to share her name if anyone needs help with Sari's or Indian Womens clothing.

Thanks for this helpful forum !

I think that is pretty naive of you,given many people still dress in traditional garb for ceremony/religous holidays.This is America you are rite to your own view but is it rite to personally attack someone-NO.

Willbur,

I'm sorry your obvious bigotry has gotten the best of your spelling ability and the ability to let others exersise their free will. I will wear a GORGEOUS Sari proudly!!! By the way, I'm a caucasion, an american citizen by birth and I feel blessed to have such diversity of ethnicities where i live, Sorry you're so full of fear and hatred.

I believe that our countries basic tennants and constitution encourages immigrants to come here. An Insult to American's in my mind would be someone trying to make our melting pot society into a white supremist society.

My suggestion for you is to read the poem on the base of the Statue of Liberty. "The New Collosus " by Emma Lazarus and pay particular attention to this line..."Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free" and think about it.

You may also want to look into buying your own island where you can model Adoph Hitler and have everyone there the same race. Good Luck with that one pal!

I find it sad that you have some much time on your hands as to take the time to reply in such a clearly racist way to something that does not concern you in any way. What's even sadder is that you feel it is your right !! Read the constitution and STOP spewing your bigotry in a neighborhood forum. you're out of line. Hatred and bigotry on line is just as disdtasteful as is is in the real world.

Kali, you've said it and more... I don't think anyone else could say it better. My son is Hawaiian, Phillipino, Chinese, Scotch, Dutch, Irish and German. The German is from me only. I love the fact that he is soo diverse. My daughter German and Irish. Both I have given a tremendous amount of information about their culture from which they hail. I couldn't be a happier.

To the person who wrote such BS.... So are we to understand that you are native american by birth or did someone from your family come over here from Europe... Which would make you not a TRUE American!!! NONE OF US ARE!!!!! Remember history, we came over on the Mayflower to start a new country.... Killed thousand of "native americans" blah blah blah

I do believe there a BIGGER issues in todays world than what someone is wearing. What should we do about education, unemployment, health care and poverty...... Shall I continue?
