Better photos

I basted down the lace and pearls, and Mike was gracious enough to take some photos:

Yes, I like this, and this is what I’ll be going with in the final version.  (The sleeve on the left – which you can barely see, but which has the scallops with pearls continuing around the top edge of the sleeve – is the way I’ll be doing the sleeve.)

    So fabulous! I haven’t kept up with your posts for the last couple of weeks — boy, a lot sure has happened. This is such an interesting project.

    The scallops with the pearls and lace at the neckline look fabulous. Do you plan to carry the scallops across the sleeves and back?
