I never cease to be amazed at the wealth of knowledge on this board. Can anyone tell me how to win the lottery? giggle

My hubby didn't do as well in Japan. He came home with some interesting (not my style) prints, but it is silk! So now I have some expensive silk fabric that I am not that fond of. Oh well. He made a valiant effort!

if you google it; you'll usually get the translation. I'll check and if you haven't gotten it in a few I'll ask a co-worker; he's speaks German

OMG. I used to go there all the time when I was stationed outside Stuttgart - almost every weekend, at least twice a month. LOVE the place, and the ladies are so friendly and accommodating (and patient!!). Did a soul good when I was so far from home. I found Germany to be that way no matter where I was, but the fabric shoppe was especially "homey."

Did I miss seeing what city/area he was in --so maybe the store location could be found ? I would be interested as I have a friend in Germany so this would give us a topic of conversation. You might yet get the store name to send a
"Thank You".

I love it! Wouldn't it be fun to shop hop in Europe someday? I see your translation question has been answered!

He's done a great job.
