Q: I'd like to start making my own clothes, but don't know where to buy the material!...
A: I thought this would be easy, but it isn't. Searching for haberdasher or draper in Galway yields no results. Try your local Yellow Pages for those (or even textiles). Beyond that, most major department stores have a drapery or haberdashery dept -- even if they don't call it that. Trouble is, so few people make their own clothes nowadays it's getting harder to get the raw materials.
