First to the right is the ribbed silk, second is a silk taffeta wich is very close to the colour of the ribbed silk, wich i will make a border of each side of the jacket to embroider on. It is very difficult to embroider on the ribbed silk, so that is why i use the taffeta. Finally to the right is the dark grey silk taffeta for the waistcoat. http://www.my-drewscostumes.dk/mixedsilksuit..htm Bjarme Leif og Bjarne Drews www.my-drewscostumes.dk http://home0.inet.tele.dk/drewscph/ ------------------------------ Message: 8 Date: Tue, 25 Oct 2005 10:43:28 EDT From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [h-cost] my new suit 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 ------------------------------ Message: 10 Date: Tue, 25 Oct 2005 10:43:21 -0600 From: "Sue Clemenger" Subject: Re: [h-cost] my new suit Oooh, Bjarne, they look just yummy! What kind of colors will you be using for the embroidery? --Sue, thinking Bjarne must be the best dressed guy in Denmark.... --------------------------------- Yahoo!
