Over the past few days I have been making up my surface decoration samples ready for the fitting. The roses need to go around the neckline, waist and hem of the dress. From the design it seems they are in clusters and then trailing from various areas. I propose to make up some small clusters of roses on net which can then be sewn onto the dress at a later date along with other single roses. Each of the roses are now taking about 40 seconds to make and I am hoping that the more I make the more I shall speed up. I have started to add buttons and hot fix rhinestones to the roses as well in accordance to the running theme throughout the event which is buttons and a bit of glitz.
Elizabeth found some pretty white flower buttons which I shall be sewing into the organza roses. The small heat fix rhinestones shall also spread from the roses over the bodice and onto the the right hand sleeve which shall be made out of lace. I have so far made 2000 ribbon roses and am going to need at least double the amount.
