It was great to be able to chat with you about this project! Do you want some linen for the hem? I know you used black cotton, but I could bring some white linen and show you an alternate technique for finishing the hem (I can also demonstrate the starting/ending technique we were discussing). I am blown away that you used the right materials for this project right from the start (linen and silk). I wish I'd of had your docs when I was judging!! I made some assumptions during my initial examination of your work that changed after discussing this project with you. What's the next one you've got planned? Giggle
