Source for "tribal" textiles?

I'm looking for fabric to make tasseled hip scarves and belts - preferably embroidered, shisha mirrors - etc. Anyone know where I can find this either on the web or in Southern CA?

    Hi, we have some Raj, belt bases and fabric strips on our website: www.tribalbazaar.com
    Kuchi belt bases are there too.
    We're also in Thousand Oaks, if you want to make an app't to actually look at some.
    (We're going to be vending at Shamans Vision in Tehachapi on May 4 too)

      Hello Perela,
      I will be closing out about 75% of my tribal wall tapestry collection at great prices to move them fast. I will be photographing them tomorrow and over the next several days. I will have them all up on my website by mid-week next week under "Closeouts". I also have tribal textle cushion covers that I am moving out. These all make great materials for belt and sash projects. My website is under construction as things have been hectically busy here at my store (what a blessing!). I will turn my attention back to the website tonight. You can find me at: www.monsoonvarsha.com
      I have a few temporary pics that I took in a crunch when I had a request located here: www.flickr.com/photos/man...3747609681/ A few of these have already been sold but the majority of them are still available. And I have so many different styles besides the ones on flickr.
      But really, I will be taking some good photos as I am an artist and will be using the images of the tapestries in my artwork. Look for them coming up over the next couple of days.
      Take care,
      Therese
