Hi,
In recreating materials found in 18th century embroidery, i thoaght i might
could use this for shaped spangels or Paillons as they were called. These
were cut from silver plates, and often vernished in different shining
collours. I would like to try it. Does any of you know this material? Is it
hard to cut out, can you use an ordinary scissors? I am in need of some cut
like a flower with 5 leaves.
Also how would you make the holes for sewing?
I am making silver embroidery, but i am not sattisfied with those flowers i
use as a substitute for Paillons, they are two dimentional, should be more
flat.
Greatly apreciate if any of you have tryed it!
