Angel Gowns

On the day of Angel gowns submission, u realised.. u forgot to sew the ribbon at the neckline.

So u pack ribbons, needle n thread and sew on the car. Like doing last min homework.

Why so rush? Cos hubby wan to go n see orchids.

See then buy. Hahaha like old ppl's hobby like tat.

Today, i collected 2 more gown kits. It is like getting a whole new workbook to do a new assignment.

I opened it up and started some preliminary brainstorming and also tidy some of the materials.

One of it is this strip of fabric filled with beads.

Initially i was gg to unpick them using the seam ripper until i saw these.

Look at all these hand stitches. I can imagine the maker of the garment spending time to sew each bead on.

After a while, i gave up the seam ripper and snipped the fabric into smaller pieces.. since the fabric is not usable for gown making.

Faster way to remove the beads.

Then got a helper to help me pick the beads out.

N here r all the beads.. to be reuse.
