My daughter travelled Asia for nine months last year and found a source of Ralli Quilts from Rajasthan . These are hand sewn and are superb colours both sides totally different . We had a new delivery from India last week .
Ralli quilts are very popular through out Sindh Pakistan. Lady Patricia Stoddard has written a great book on ralli quilts. Ralli quilts are also available in USA on website www.ralliquilt.com )the site site is owned by Patricia.)
Most of my adult life has been spent dealing in one form or another with Antique textiles. Recently I have found great interest in trying to source very old pieces which are now becoming so rare. I love to source early textiles from Spitalfields and have developed a great interest in early French fabrics and the history that goes with these beautiful pieces.
I currently still teach Art and Design but also run a business devoted primarily to finding these early pieces of textile both to collect and sell .
My stock for sale can always be found on ebay under my name .. sallie_ead and I have a web shop within the Ruby Lane antique on line shopping arcade. This is a new venture and is listed as Lucia Collectables.
I will post new finds on my blog and images of textiles which are fascinating and are part of my personal collection...
The Antique Textile Bazaar is going to have listed for sale the small fragments for makers and collectors and bundles of fabrics which are perfect for projects.
I will put the price which will include postage , second class, if you need ant first class postage i would have to charge a nominal fee. .
