The corners..
I really enjoyed making the pieced and appliqued circles. There will probably be a few more tiny pieces of applique around the circle.
I will be taking a little break from Jane while I catch up with my Chester Criswell quilt blocks.
And a bit of showing off...just because I can! Lol
Two of my DD's friends got married recently. My DD made the bride's wedding gown.
Lots of silk chiffon draped over the bodice. There are covered buttons and a concealed zip down the back. Beaded French lace was appliqued around the hem.
I had a small part in helping to hand applique the lace ...
....and appliquing the lace around the edge of the veil. I used transparent thread to stitch the lace down.
My DD made her outfit too. She fell in love with a pair of shoes, then designed a dress to wear with them. She loves loops and covered buttons.
At the moment there is a beautiful perfume of citrus blossom in our back yard.
Lovely work Miriam and what a clever daughter you have. I am sure that you can take some credit.
