Thank you so much for the flower tutorial! You have a great site. I would love to make sometime like these from Marquis and Camus. Do you know what that fabric might be? Thanks so much!
They have some BEAUTIFUL pieces at Marquis and Camus–are you referring to a specific piece or just in general? It looked like most of their flowers were made from chiffons and light silks and laces. When making flowers, the most important factor to look for is LIGHTNESS and texture. Look for light cottons, chiffons, silks and laces. I sometimes use lining fabric because it’s so light, cheap, and burns well. Good luck! And I would love to see whatever you end up making!
WOW. I found this blog on Bing poking around for something completely unrelated- now I’m going to have to go back and go through all the archives Good bye free time this Sunday!
