Sadie's happy today and she should be. It's the first time she's modeled a wedding headpiece.
You can hardly see her scars while wearing this little number.
Amy had a girl ask her to make a wedding veil for her and she said, "yes" then called me. Amy's talented but not with the needle. She gave me a veil that had been given to her and I tore everything off, leaving just the nylon mesh around the wire and globs of hot glue. I had the lace pieces, the satiny fabric and the beads. All I had to do was put it together. It took me a few days of thinking about it, then I just began adding stuff. I basically covered the whole form with the lace, made the flowers, sewed them on (quite a feat seeing as I had to work around the glue) and added the beads and tulle. The girl only wanted a shoulder-length veil and this is a little longer than that. It gives us some wiggle room if she wants it shorter--easier to do that than add more, though it could be done with some maneuvering. It was fun to make and took me about 3 hours--not bad for my first ever wedding veil, I think.
