An reason for “purchased trim”

I was in M&J Trimming on Saturday as well as barely made it out of there alive. I handled to restrain myself only since I hadn’t brought any type of yardage demands with me, making purchasing trim for particular gowns an exercise in pure guesstimation. I ended up purchasing some eco-friendly leaf trim (what I went in there for), a Superman patch for my bit boy, as well as a string of yellow beads (they were 99).

If I were to make a listing of whatever at M&J that seriously lured me, we’d be right here for days, so the highlights: some polka-dotted stretchy foldover trim (especially as a co-worker stopped me on Friday in dismay. “You’re not using polka dots!” he said, looking stricken. “You *always* wear some type of polka dot!” I talked him down however it was a close thing.) Some heavy beaded ribbon in tones of teal as well as turquoise. Some faux-folklorica embroidery edging. as well as the killer, tulle covered with small square sequins. Square! So Courrges! I wished to purchase the whole bolt as well as utilize it to make a skirt. I wished to purchase all the bolts (they had several colors) as well as just hoard it.

Then I believed of this pattern, just recently bought as part of the excellent Midriff Band Obsession of 2005 (look, this is SHAPED) as well as believed exactly how good the sequins would be as the “purchased trim” for this dress. now I just have to choose the color. I believe tone-on-tone would be the very best … not that I truly have any type of location to wear a sequin-embellished ANYTHING, however that’s never stopped me before.

Just one note: the floral gown looks as if it has a small collar, however it’s just the miter line of the trim. Sorry. Fooled me too.
