I made this as a sample for my girlfriend who is getting married in Novemeber and asked me to make them for all the women in her bridal party...I've just sent it out to her and will be getting started on all those leaves & flowers really soon!!

Oh, I love that! I have been eyeing that piece for a while now,,,

[jessc031778]

It's not hard to make...I thought it would be more difficult, but the only tricky part is the foundation vine-like piece...once that was done, the rest just flew along!!

Lovely headpiece,Jessie!

woohoo Jessie you finally finished it! all that sewing paid off!! looks fabulous. hope your friend loves as much as we do, but I do wonder how you will cope knowing you MUST make them (again with the sewing lol)

[jessc031778]

now that I actually got off my tush and did it, I know it's no where near as much sewing as I thought it would be...and the pieces all work up really quickly, and I have almost exactly a year til the wedding, so I've got the time to put it off a few times before doing it LOL!! Right now, I've got all the cotton together and will be starting on the pieces soon...all I need are the head measurements of the gals who will be wearing them and I'm good to go!!!

Oh Jessie .. that is absolutely fabulous!! I've been clicking on that pattern and drooling over it for months now ... hmmmm I'm officiating at my girlfriend's wedding the end of the month .. I wonder if I have time to make this for her as a surprise?

[jessc031778]

Lisa...it really did work up very quickly...I had all the parts made within about a week's time but I kept putting off the sewing it all together part of the project for a rediculous amount of time...and then I've had it totally completed for about 2 months now and I just sent it out to my girlfriend on Monday..I've been really bad about this one...but I'd think you have enough time to work one up for her!! And if you do beading at all, you can make give it a little sparkle by putting a pretty bead in the center of each flower when you sew them on...my mom will be doing that for the wedding for me LOL!!

Beautiful headpiece, I've often looked at that pattern but thought it was too tricky - now I know maybe it's not Lovely of you to do this for your friend.
