Hemmed the painted petti today - took longer than anticipated because I forgot how fussy a small hem is on this fine voile.

Also, it struck me that I might theoretically spangle an entire dress and then manage to melt it all with an iron... so I tried out a couple of my fakey-fake spangles, and even under a press cloth they still warped. I suspect that when the iron's hot enough to flatten the cotton, it's just too much for the spangles. And I really cannot make an entire dress that can't be ironed! Hmmmmm.

My cotton spangled dress was ok. I did the major pressing before spa gelding it. Then I steamed it after to de wrinkle it.

spa gelding it is my new favorite typo EVER

I was going to ask you about your dress! Hmm, that sounds reasonable to do...although considering my track record with marking up my costumes, I will have to think very hard about it!

I can't believe it doesn't know that spangleing is a word. My phone doesn't know me at all.

Hahahaha, that was a pretty awesome typo! Silly phone.
