Thank you all for your feedback on aspects of the rainbow dress over the last few days. My husband and I have decided on Version 1 – my choice was always between 1 and 3. As pink is her favourite colour for the highest percentage of the time, we’re going with that closest to her face.<\/p>\n
I really appreciate the confirmation from experienced dressmakers that keeping with the original grain is the way to go. The dressmaking tips were pure gold. Many I already knew, but its never a bad thing to hear good advice like that again!<\/p>\n
We checked the local shop’s poplin on Saturday and they have enough different colours that we can do the whole rainbow. I didn’t get the fabric there yet though, as I’m off on my fabric and buttons trip later this week, and would like to see if there’s anything available of a slightly heavier weight. So I’m being patient. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I finished off the drawn thread work of my new embroidery Portuguese whitework project yesterday, so am looking forward to getting onto the bullion work some time this week.<\/p>\n
As always, I’m very busy and there’s lots on my to do list, but I enjoy what I do. Being happy and fulfilled really makes for satisfaction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
