Dear (almost) Father Domenico,
in L'Aquila, in Piazza Chiarino there is a tailor's shop with all garments supplied for the clergy. And along the corso there is a craftshop run by two young ladies who still work tombolo. If you give them a model they might do one for you.
here is a web page for their shop:
