Embroidery Fit for a Queen

I purchased the fabric for the Red Invasion gown and started playing with the embroidery. Take a look...






The color of the actual fabric is a little less pink red. The flash did funny stuff to it. The stabilizer is still on the embroidery motif. Other than that, pretty good. Metallic thread is a b*?@h to work with. It breaks ALLLLLL of the time.

I have been awfully lazy about pictures....

I made the Light Blue Tatooine outfit for a wonderful gal to wear to Comic*con this year. She was kind enough to send me pictures.



Doesn't she look GREAT!


Thank You so much Judy!
