I have spend a lot of time speculating and considered wether i should make a
suit for myself with bullion roses or not. I have come to the conclusion,
that i will. I dont want my creativity stopped because it is not
historically correct. I did try, but i felt so sad that i would not be able
to use some of the embroidery i make the best, so i desided to skip the
authentity and dont care about what others will say.
It was known to make bullion roses, i saw them on some 17th century glove
cuffs some time ago, worked in metal threads.
I just uploaded the start of this projekt, i am in the middle of upscaling
patterns now.
