Yesterday I re-beaded the back bodice sections where I left the knots on the outside. It wasn't that hard, but trying to stitch without puckering after the shape's already cut out was a little nerve-wracking. See the shape near the center top where I removed the beads? Now stitch that without stretching it - yikes! This is the first time I felt that the dress was very fragile. I started having nightmares of things ripping when I sit down. And here she is - minus beading at the bottom where I'll have to cut off the train - boo. This pattern would make a gorgeous dress for a wedding or something where no one's going to step on the train...or spill vodka on it. All that's left is to fell the seam (better get the pliers and leather thimble), sew the side seams, and bind the neckline and armholes. What would you use for binding - the darker fabric, or the lighter? I'm leaning towards the darker, but I'm open to suggestions....and I've been thinking about beading options on the binding - may have to check out the Craftsy projects and Bianca's blog to get some ideas.
Lately, we’ve looked at quite a few simple ways to add beads to embroidery stitches as part of the Stitch Fun! series here on Needle ‘n Thread. In this exploration of embroidery with beads, if you could take away just one lesson from the various tutorials, I’d want it to be this: It’s easy to ...

I've been wanting to post pictures for a while now. Here they finally are. This top is super comfortable and flattering. I thought I was going to do a bunch of embroidery, but I was undecided about what and how much, so I stopped after stitching the first stem. I left the stitching because it tells me which side is the front. Otherwise I really wouldn't be able to tell because the pattern pieces are very similar. I am bustier than my form, so on my the shoulder seam pulls to the front. Next time I use this pattern I will cut off 1 inch from the back shoulder so that the back pulls the front up a bit. I will probably raise the front neckline a little as well. I love the herringbone stitch so I used it to flat fell the seams open and to bind the edges. And there you have it. I'm hoping to make a more involved piece soon with my new airbrush and a larger stencil. I'll be sure to post about that when it happens.

В Японии это называется боро, в Индии - кантха, и то и другое это стежковая вышивка по лоскутам. Но если индианки предпочитали цветные нитки для стежки, то японки брали в основном однотонные. Правда это был не вопрос эстетического выбора, а вопрос практичности - грубые ткани сшивались суровыми…
