Help! Seamstresses!!!
My cousin is getting married in June. She got a good deal on a strapless dress but wants a lace shrug or bolero to go over it. Mom is offering to make it but is nervous about sewing lace and matching the lace to the lace on her dress. I need resources!
1) Good quality patterns for boleros (yes, we've checked the typical makers like Vogue and Simplicity).
2) How to make a somewhat structured garment out of primarily lace (could we stiffen or reinforce it over a sheer fabric?
3) Where should we shop for fabric? Britex? Laci's?
Any tips are welcomed!
