I collect all the duppataye from new unstitched suits as I have no need for them since I wear hijab, and make either tops for myself, outfits for my little niece, or I send them to my SIL in India for her to make tops....
Just this weekend, I went to Blackburn and bought the most gorgeous black and silver suit - but it had a huge duppata as the lady gave me extra as there wasn't much left on the roll......I'm sendding it to SIL in India to make a top.
My husband loves this as he says it saves him money!!!!!
