Lov-er-ly!
I was just thinking....it's important, I think, to make sure somehow that
the appliqued embroidery looks, without a doubt, that it was MEANT to be
appliqued.
Y'know what I mean?
I'm not sure how this can be achieved, but somehow the applique process must
be part of the embroidery process too. Maybe some element, leaves or fruit
or something, can be the quilted taffeta. Or appliqued lace is also
incorporated. [I don't mean to design things for you, I'm just thinking out
loud]
In "Fashion in Detail" somewhere is some embroidery on a waistcoat that is
made up of multiple techniques....an appliqued lace with embroidery over it
and sequins or something like that.
Am I making sense? I just don't want someone to look at your suit and think
"Oh he took the embroidery off a bed hanging and applied it to the coat." It
must look like it was meant to be appliqued from the start.
Then of course you have to do it to the waistcoat. :-P
