• With Summer's heat on the beat and trying to keep cool, I wonder someone knows where I ca get some T-shirt dresses made ? There are loads of the cotton jersey materials at the Cho Hom market, but really stuck as to how I can use some nice stuff to make some Summer outfits. My regular tailor does not have the special sewing machine for jerseys. Any help/suggestion would be really appreciated !

  Thanks Grubby ! Guess Vietnam will have to be ticked out regarding organic products in that line. Fully agree with you. The organic side in silk production is the organic mulberry cultivation as well as using natural dyes in the dyeing process.

  Cheers

  Hi, if it is not small models that you are looking for, then, Hanoi might be a hard place to find them. Otherwise, if you are after hand carved wooden models, then there is a shop on Hang Gai just before the new Segafredo cafe, it is a biggish shop close to the Jewelry shop. The salesgirls are very charming and speak good English. Good Luck !
