Colour blocking tinz....

This dress is made of textured Lycra in two colours: peach and deep purple.

It is fully lined in soft lycra and has a peephole at the bust area (for the daring only...lol).

The last picture shows the inner lining and facing detail for the peephole to give a professional and neat finish.

Some more pictures and design ideas...

The first one is a skirt and blouse combo made out of fully sequined fabric. The blouse has an inner bustier, a tapered peplum and metal heart shaped clasp at the waist.

Thanx so much, ma.
I just read about the fire incident. So sorry, ma. No wonder you have been absent all these while. GOD will surely replenish all and also help you to get over in Jesus name, Amen.
Pls ma, I also have a problem. How can I achieve this full length?

This is called a hi-low skirt. Please send me a reminder tomorrow afternoon so w can work on drafting it in the evening.

Feel free to experiment and try beading with different sizes, shapes and colors of beads till you get your own personal style and taste.

Make sure the thread is firmly secured before you continue.

Pass the needle through the hole at the centre of one sequin and pick it up.

Pick up a bead also.

Pull both of them through till the end of the thread and sew them securely to the fabric.

Give a little space and move to the next sequin and bead.

larosa:
Thank you.

I always use needle and thread for my beading.It takes longer to finish but can last for years and endure frequent washing. Let's make it a date on Monday i will show you how to fix them.

OK ladies, as promised here is a quick picture lesson on sewing beads to fabric.

Am sure most of you already know how to do it but for those who don't here goes:

Picture 1: different kinds of beads including the iron on stones
Picture 2: draw the shape you want to bead on the fabric first
picture 3 & 4: thread the needle and put it through the fabric loop it firmly

bimbam:
Dear larosa

So sorry about the fire incident...May the Lord give you beauty for the ashes...as the Yoruba adage says , "the burnt palace will be rebuilt with even more beauty and splendour"

Take heart, dear...we give thanks that there was no loss of life...things can and will be replaced, iJMN!

Welcome back...

Thank you my dear sis, God bless you.
