- Comment!
Every once in a while I get to work on something neat for someone else. I am part of a team working on a Swabian dress for HRM Kiena of the East. My job is to assemble the pieces into a finished garment and create the undergarments and hat. All of the sleeve beading and applique was done by the talented Barry the White. Ismay and I worked on the bodice beading/gilt application.
The bodice for the swabian gown has been appliqued,beaded, pieced and stitched. All that remains is to attach the pleated skirt and hook/eyes. And to trim all the little thready bits.
