Oddly enough, it got finished on time; 13 months, with a few
other things going on. It was an amazing
and challenging process, and I definitely proved a lot to myself. I couldn’t
have done it without my wonderful friends, who came over all year to stir dye
baths, sew sequins, couch velvet, and give me lots of reassurance that it
actually did look okay.
It certainly turned out different from the original if one compares pictures, but I think I captured the essence of what was important to me; the silhouette, the design, the heavy embellishment and ethereal color.
And now, everything together!
