And on Zhoie's dress I tried a Madiera applique (scallops) and homemade piping all over, and piping over lace on the collar. That is a piece of antique lace... I wish I had more to put around the scallops...I'll have to look again, lol: Attachment 364444
(So far, I've only used the one dress pattern...) | I just love your work! You make dresses so beautiful! I love the scallops! I need to learn that next!
