The very old lady who had the shop was really very old and had never installed electricity in the shop. I would carry the bolt of fabric to the door, even outside, to see the color. I bought some thick wool to make a coat for myself. I loved that warm coat. She didn't have lining fabric and I think I had to spend more on the lining that on the wool. I think the wool fabric was 17 FFR per meter. There is now a very expensive gallery, there.Ellen Lebellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01929639076042070115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-60234940492867888942017-12-20T17:19:31.823+01:002017-12-20T17:19:31.823+01:00When in Paris for ten days in September, we went b...When in Paris for ten days in September, we went back to Cafe' Hugo and found it as good as ever, as the fully occupied tables attested.
