Madame de Pomp

[aimeekitty]

COSTUMING PEEPS-
You guys, where can I get some non-scratchy wide lace to use for the sleeve flounces on an 18th century gown? I hate the stuff I used for my Lia red gown and I want something softer for my Madame de Pompadour. Doesn't have to be a perfect match, but something pretty and soft. I'll probably need to go downtown at some point, but I thought I'd look online first if you guys have any suggestions.

RE: MARKER TUTORIAL. I found my FLIP camera, so I guess I can put it on my gorillapod? (... hmm... wonder where I put that...) so when I'm not all sarsy anymore, I'll do that!

Still dizzy, but I'm feeling better and my brain is functioning, which is nice. I hate feeling useless! For a few days there I couldn't concentrate, read or draw, which is pretty irritating. Anyway, on the way up, I guess, thanks for the well wishes, you guys!

I've bought lace/fabric and turned it into wide lace before, it's generally a bit softer. Thoguh it can be a bit expensive to do it that way you have lots of leftovers for another project.

Though I used an embriodered organdy for this project here is a pic. -----> http://www.flickr.com/photos/applcheeks/3128524181/sizes/o/

yeah, that's what I did for Lia, but I think I need to be more careful about getting something soft. (Lia's flounces are left over fabric from Trinity Blood)
