@EastIndianMemoryCo hi, had to tell you... i found j d mahimwala and company on the net. they had no website but there was a mobile number. took a chance. whatsapped. asked if i could see some lugras/6 yard sarees. a day later they responded. wonderful chat. tomorrow 3 east indian sarees and 1 full 9-yard lugra will be posted to my cousin. yay. thanks so much. will post pictures of the sarees once i get them. and maybe learn to wear a lugra too.
