But then neither am I! Here in our Punjabi Market they are "salwar" and they are an integral part of a "suit" (salwar/trousers, kameez/tunic plus dupatta/scarf).Louisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685532773952211627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3482123419519585242.post-70311944151355172252013-06-15T05:28:00.241-07:002013-06-15T05:28:00.241-07:00Great work on the odds and ends of your sewing lif...Great work on the odds and ends of your sewing life, Margy.
