Hi, now here is something, you are not asked for everyday

Every culture is so different, but in ours, the ladies still like to use a hanky to wipe their nose, dab their brow or clean their mascara and for so many years we have purchased our supply from a darling in the "Secretaries market" down off Si Lom or from Chong Nonsi. Everytime we are in town we would pick up a hundred or so for the shops. We figured she bought scraps from the dress and shirt makers and made these tiny masterpieces. They were bright, different and well cut and edge hemmed. Alas, on the last two trips we have been unable to find her. We started to buy them in Indonesia, but the batik prints are drab in comparison, and in desperation, to please our ladies, thought we would ask the Thailand FFs have they come across her new selling point OR know of anyone else in BKK that's making them. Every month or so we visit HKG/SIN and CGK/DPS, so if you have seen them somewhere else, don't be afraid to post, regards bkkrop

Can you post or link to a picture of a sample? Material? Size? Unit price? I can ask around.

There is a large fabric market, with plenty of finished goods, called Pahurat, bounded by Pahurat, Burapha, Tri Phet and Charoen Krung roads between Rattanakosin and Yoawarat (Chinatown). There are large wholesale clothing markets at Bobae and Pratunam.

Thanks lomatopo, I know most names on this board and have never come across you, so thanks for replying, and I am positive you are right. When I first went back to Bangkok after a long absence, my first day was spent in Chinatown. I was younger, eager to see everything again,and raced from one place to another and it was in Chinatown that I went down like a sack of potato. It was 38, I had no water, I was invincible. The last thing I remembered was a nurse saying there's no pulse, this one isn't going to make it, then an old timber ambulance and a hospital room. To this day I haven't been back to Chinatown, but I will in a couple of weeks, regards bkkrop
