My newest design. I sewed the dress and then I designed this shawl type of collar. For the first time in my life I paid $38.00 a skein for the yarn. It is Tilli Tomas Disco lites. The silk yarn has matching sequins woven into theproduct. I have never worked with such an easy yarn. I worn this gown to a Dinner Dance. The compliments were amazing. It took 2 skeins, but it was well worth the money. For the first time I combined my sewing skills with my crocheting.
