Biggins sell gold & silver elastic for their garter patterns so that should fit Viv
Hi, I would really appreciate some advice about elastic for wedding garters please :o) I have completed a garter (one of Biggin's torchon garter patterns) for one of my friends at work - although she doesn't know it yet - and luckily she is one of these stick insect types so I didn't have to do yards and yards of it. Having said that, I thoroughly enjoyed doing it and am quite sorry it is finished. Jacquie Tinch and I were chatting last night about it as I wondered what elastic was best to use and we both remembered that someone on the Arachne list spoke about this a while back. I'm sure it was mentioned that you could use some kind of bra-strap elastic or something similar which was slightly fluffy on one side which would stop the garter from slipping. What I was wondering was, if this is correct, any ideas where I could get this from? Jacquie rightly said we could look on the internet but as you all have so much experience out there, I would rather go by your recommendations of what you have used to keep the garter from slipping. The holes in the garter are very small and will only take 4mm size elastic and ribbon - and that's another story trying to find some decent ribbon of that size so if you know of any good suppliers with a selection I'd love to hear from you. Thank you very much, any help you can offer would be gratefully received :o) With my best wishes Jill - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
