So the only difference is that one set of three has visible topstitching?

Have you tried hanging them up at the same height that they will be on the day to see if there is a difference discernible to anyone apart from you? If there is a difference  I would talk to the bride and explain that there is a problem and ask her whether she minds, or can come up with a way of hanging them where the difference won't be obvious. 

If it is a major problem I would ask the bride to provide you with another lot of fabric to make another set.  I certainly wouldn't be un-picking and re-sewing a set. At the very least I'd ask the other two ladies to help.

I am really sorry to hear about your poor little cat. You must be heartbroken.

I'd like to join in too.
Would like to "get rid of" a length of black crinkle silk for starters.
I think I need to stop worrying about finding a use for a length of fabric that uses it all up and instead make something out of it and turn the rest into bags or something.

I wondered about this. On my PC the post is under the avatar.

This has started happening to me too.  Yesterday the posts were next to the avatar.  I was assuming that this was a result of Fran squaring up the pictures and that it would get sorted when she has time.

I think it's all beautiful ..... with the exception, if  I can make a teenie-weenie minor negative comment, of the boxes on the left-hand side with the avartars etc in them - some of them are quite long, and so if the poster has only written a couple of lines their "box" is longer than the post.  This can mean quite a lot of scrolling down.

Now ducking!

Hi, I'm new... / Re: Hello

Hello everyone,

I've kept my old name even though it's not really appropriate anymore. 

For any newbies, I'm a 50+ woman interested in dressmaking (in the past I made a lot of stuff in black velvet and leather, alas no more) and also gardening.  The mis-spelling in my name is intentional!

I want to thank MrIminei, MrsIminei and Fran for all their hard work.
