I was on short time frame and bought this same material (at 60% off at JoAnn's) to throw together a quick Elizabethan. I did not have enough of the flocked material to make the long Spanish sleeves I wanted to add so, I found (by pure luck) the perfect match to the background material (at of all places--Hobby Lobby) and used that with cut velvet trim to tie the theme back into the main flocked material. I have NEVER had so many compliments and got stopped every 10 feet at our local Faire for photos. Everyone went crazy over that fabric. I have to say, that it did look rich and wonderful when the light hit it.
As to YOUR outfit--I like the tabs. Diane I'm not sure what I should do here. This bodice http://tinyurl.com/343la7 is sort of a practice bodice. It is made from flocked fake silk taffeta (barf - but it was the closest fabric I have found to give the right look.) I found it at the last minute about a week ago at Jo Annes - it just happened to match the silk taffeta of the skirt almost exactly. I am in the process of having another embroidered to match the embroidery in the actual picture. http://tinyurl.com/3bdc27 _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
