The dress sounds so cute, Marie, you'll need to dig up a picture and share. The first projects are simply the best I think, nothing like seeing that pattern come to life!

OMG. It was cute, but I struggled. Never did get good with a machine, but I love hand stitching! I remember my first sewing project was in 8th grade home ec class – a dress with a pin-tuck bodice.

It came in gold and silver tones.

That could work as well. Royal brand (if it is still around) and Knit-Cro-Sheen from J&P Coats also have a silver/filament crochet cotton. Hope that helps! Cathy :-) Hi Terri,

You can watch videos of how origami folds are done and made as embellishments for their scrapbook. Yeah, you can save some cash in making your own embellishments.
