I just got very sneeky The young bride to be was telling me how close her wedding was so I was able to ask a few questions and so I know know she has an ivory dress, so now my question is, What threads come in the best ivory. Preference is silk or maybe cotton. I like Gutterman silk, so do any of you know if they do a good ivory? I have never bought ivory mostly using white, occasionally thicker threads in colours. I can change the sizes up or down to get the right grid for the thread once I work out what might be best. I have not yet decided what to do as I have been concentrating on completing my lady picture and clearing away all the threads from the bobbins. I will go through my books looking for something which might make a good choice over the next week or so I expect.
Hello Sue and everyone Just some thoughts - Make white lace then tie appropriate colour ribbon on the lace somewhere, when you do know? If the bride has chosen off-white, sew on a tiny off-white button 'for luck' ?
