At this point, I've mastered figuring out the cuts of gowns. I can look at most outfits and figure out how to recreate the cut of that style. My detail works need to improve, like embroidery.
2. What is your Favorite thing about making Italian garb?
It's pretty easy to make an Italian gown within a few hours and have it look pretty to even an untrained eye. I also love just the research of it all. Looking through pages of artwork from various periods and seeing the changes in fashion. ...and then there is buying the pretty fabrics...
3. How do you approach a new project, as in what order, your process?

In other news: I caught the bouquet. :-) It went flying right to under my arm. My brother, Lee, caught the garter. We didn't bother with the putting the garter on for obvious reasons.
