Thwre are so many variations in art from the period, but they all seem to be made from silk, the way they flow, and often very sheer.Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04991158901359984541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429781128175064591.post-16931934795114667792016-11-06T11:58:21.139-08:002016-11-06T11:58:21.139-08:00I beaded it myself, I'll add a photo of the tr...I beaded it myself, I'll add a photo of the trim.Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04991158901359984541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429781128175064591.post-68450052060304216852016-11-06T11:33:53.089-08:002016-11-06T11:33:53.089-08:00Given that your photo session was improvised quick...Given that your photo session was improvised quickly, I think the veil looks wonderful!

I'm also impressed that you completed an outfit with the arthritis bothering you, though I can see where typing might hurt worse than sewing.<br /><br />If you get a chance, maybe Anna or someone could take a close-up picture of the trim on the dress sometime. Did you sew the beads on it yourself, or did it come beaded? I would love to be able to see the design.Cathy Raymondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04580681386443534011noreply@blogger.com
