Chinatown Shopping Day
Chinatown has pink banners up saying “long live the King”. Click on the video to play.Thailand is OK for tourists once again after the floods in October/November. We went shopping along Sampeng Lane and walked to Pahurat. There is a good variety of quilt fabric, especially a lot of pretty Moda fabric. We shopped at China World mall and had lunch at the food court on the 3rd floor. It was a very nice day.

I will be in Bangkok in January and looking for mudmee fabric – new or old, cotton and/or silk. Can you recommend place(s) to buy quality traditional fabrics? Thank you, in advance.
