Here is a visual reminder:
The more I looked at it, the more I realised I wasn't entirely happy with how the ribbon was hanging-it kind of puckered a bit, and just didn't hang quite as well as I had hoped. What to do, what to do?
I unpicked it all, and started again! This time I researched it a bit more, and discovered biased binding was more appropriate. 18 meters of unpicking....
But.... it looked fantastic on the night, and I was much happier with it! You may even catch a back view of the bride... (excude the blurring of the faces...)
Bunting looks fab, dress looks amazing! More pics please? mel x
ReplyDeleteThanks! And I LOVED my dress. I'll pop some pics up when I get them good ones back from the photographer! x
DeleteVery pretty dress. Lace bunting sounds daunting, glad it all came together in time.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I think I just jumped in and bought the materials and did it one weekend, without really thinking and freaking myself out. And once i'd done it, I realised it wasn't too bad-straight lines really- and wouldn't be too tricky to fix. It was just a night of frustrating unpicking in front of a movie. x
DeleteCongrats! Sewing can addictive so look out! Lisa xo
ReplyDeleteI hope so! My mum and grandma always sewed (it's actually my grandma's old machine), and I've always wanted to be better. Cushions next!! Just need to find some nice fabric! x
