Well coverstitch it is then, I'm all for an easy life. The sleeves will be coverstitched and there is a piece that goes all round the neck and across the body, that is done the same. It is quite a busy pattern so I suspect that it will not be seen.
I've hit a slight hump. I intended just wearing the dress, no jacket, then had second thoughts if weather not good. Intent on not spending any more money I looked to the wardrobe. First jacket lovely but a gorgeous dark cerise pink, might be too dark for dress which is summery. Next jacket, perfect, but, sleeves are three quarter, so if used might have to alter sleeves to three quarter, next jacket perfect colour but never liked collar. Next jacket, which I remembered last night, a pale blue colour, not tried that with the dress yet. So far I think the sleeves are going to be three quarter.
Lets face it, people are more interested in the bride's dress than the guest's outfits.
My mother was the queen of buying stuff for weddings and it never seeing the light of day again. I just did not want to go that route.
