Looking at my drawings I began to plan samples with the patterns found in my lace designs. I really enjoyed playing around with the dissolvable fabrics, using the cornely 121 to create the stitches, then nervously watching the fabrics dissolve away, afraid that it would leave me with only a bundle of threads.
The details are intricate and delicate, alike to those that are found on Elie Saab embellishments. On the negative, I used a felt tip pen to mark out my design when on the machine, and I thought that the pen marks would wash away with the fabric, which it didn't... Fingers crossed I'll be able to wash them out. I am going to do some more of these samples next week, as I really enjoy using this machine and working with a really difficult, yet beautiful outcome.
