Instead of horsehair braid for the hem, I have purchased some cord to weight the bottom as I felt the flow would be a little too stiff with the braid. It's a shame I can't put a close up pic of the fabric as the pattern on the material is paisley and I've played around with the pattern - alternating it by cutting the pieces from different parts of the fabric. I've also seen some silver shoes that will match the pattern perfectly. 5/20/10 12:02 PM
