Please? Making my wedding dress. Would like a satiny teal/blue/green (solid or mix), soft color... And cream lace for an overdress... not finding much in my online searches... any ideas? It will be a fifties style tea length dress, similar to this: Harvey Berin gown Thanks for any help from you, or others! -- Edited on 10/1/12 1:14 PM --

Fabulous quality silk charmeuse at NY Fashion Centrer, look at #252 Blue Aqua Haze Silk If you were doing a Winter Wedding...velvet. Nummmmm... This one's too dark, but so pretty I had to post it. Carolina Herrera silk Mood Fabrics; tons of silks How $ are you willing to go on the lace? This is very special stuff...ask Kate. McQueen Solstiss I'll keep me peeps open for more! ------ I heart Panzy, Pfaff Creative Performance, the sewing machine love of my life! And Rupert (Pfaff 2023), Baby (BL Enlighten), Victor (BLCS), Ash (Bernina 350SE), Pal (Bernina 530), Kee (Bernina 750) and the Featherteen Flock! Most of all, I heart Woo (HimmyCat).

You might want to bookmark any fabric sources that look really good to you.. Good luck in finding your fabric..

I picked up a bridal mag today... (reminds self not to do that, wow, the stuff they think you need to buy)... and lo and behold, I'm sharing a vision with Oscar de la Renta!
