Better to be Johnny on the spot rather than out of luck. ;) :p
Thanks again for putting this together.

Aw...thank you for the kind words!

I will share them with my husband. We had a power outage in our neighborhood last night, and I edited the scanned in photos for 3 hours while my computer battery died down. Husband was *not pleased* I spent time doing this in the dark and using up all my battery. This one's for the team! lol

Thanks for putting so much time in and in such conditions. :eusa_doh:
Its a good read. I am going to have to contact you later to get the name of that rug reweaver......:D
Oh and you PM box is full.

Haha, you don't know the half of it. I'm expecting a baby in a couple weeks. :eek: Did I mention hubby was not happy I chose to work on this project right now? :eusa_doh: lol

I have to have more info about what your needs are re: rug reweaving. There is a family run business in South San Jose who does wonderful work on rugs (we brought in my mother in laws rugs there for cleaning), but they didn't baste the repairs to my suit, so the repairs disintegrated. I wouldn't recommend them for suit repair work.

If you really need a specialist who cleans and repairs antique persian rugs, we have a personal family friend who used to own a Persian Rug shop here and I am sure I can get excellent referrals to specialty cleaners - be warned, some of the rugs he sold were $50,000+ each, so we aren't talking low-end rug cleaners. Off topic: Whenever my husband and I visited his shop, we tried our very best not to step on any rug in the store, because we never knew what was expensive and rare. We always tip-toed through his store. :D

I did, however, post resources in another discussion thread in the Suit Forum. Check out my responses for the last week under moth hole repair or something like that. Someone else posted a great online link and I just copied it.
