Love it! So many ideas - so little time to sew!<BR/>I just got a pleater recently, so am learning how to use it - you have encouraged me. The last time I did any smocking was around 20 years ago - using those little dots to pleat - can't wait until my pleater and I are better acquainted. I have 3 grandaughters to sew for - and their moms love to put them in dresses - and dresses made by Grammie are always the best! :)<BR/>Keep on blogging - I look forward to reading more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8716566061968029463.post-45461184115819844202007-07-31T16:37:00.000-07:002007-07-31T16:37:00.000-07:00Emilee, ask and ye shall receive:http://www.everyt...Emilee, ask and ye shall receive:<BR/>http://www.everythingsewing.net/bullionstitch.htm<BR/><BR/>Click on "how to" at the bottom of the page for lots of other great illustrated instructions, including the buillon rose. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8716566061968029463.post-70267919234409702442007-07-31T13:40:00.000-07:002007-07-31T13:40:00.000-07:00Beautiful work - Creative Smocking, a book by by ...Beautiful work - Creative Smocking, a book by by Chris Rankin, has lovely instructions on page 61.

I have A-Z of Bullions too. Those two books revolutionized bullions for me. <BR/><BR/><BR/>It is amazing but in the 2 pics of Woodstock, my screen shows them as completely different colors.CandlebyNighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008449009418363977noreply@blogger.com
