cushion covers in bangkok
 
dw wants to know where she can get custom made cushion covers in bangkok. we have an odd shaped cushion, so off the shelf covers are not an option. i've seen lots of rec. for tailors, but don't recall anyone mentioning cushion covers. anyone did this in bangkok?

orgy, good guess. its in the shape of a t. its a cushion for a chinese rosewood chair. i don't think the chair is very comfortable, but looks good.

paya which used to be on sukhumvit but has now moved to:
soi 63-5 sukhumvit rd

take soi 63 off of sukhumvit and go to the 5th soi off of that just before the esso station---turn left onto 63-5...it is opposite the tao paint company..
Tel: 02-711-4457

they made us a wonderful heavy cotton double fouton cover for about $80 including fabric...they have all kinds of fabrics abailable and you could probably bring your own fabric as well..

have your exact measurments...

we had our and it fits perfectly...

jim thompson will also do custom work...main store and maybe from the outlets...not from the hotel shops...

You can also go to Almeta - www.almeta.com - pricey but fabulos range of silks. They will mail to you if not done before your trip.
