So I've been sewing them on there, mostly matching the colors of the sequins to their backgrounds, at least so far. I don't exactly know where this is headed or if it is a mistake or not...but it is fun to play with them.
Pretty subtle here....
These stand out more. I wanted the hint of sequins, not obvious sequins.
I am so holding back with them!
Mmmmmm.....blue ones......
We're not approaching Bob Mackie territory here, are we?
The jury is out and has much deliberation to do as to whether this was a good idea or not...but meanwhile, I'll keep sewing on sequins. I sure wish I had more colors. This is an excellent excuse to go buy some more!
nothing suceeds like excess. i adore the sequins.
ReplyDeleteI love what you are doing. The Mackie site has discusting model dolls that are anorexic looking I was shocked as if Barbie wasnt a hard image for little girls to meet up to before....
ReplyDeleteI agree with belvedere!! Love that for a quote!! The sequins are wonderful - make the seams sparkle. don't be timid with them. heeheehee I like the green ones too. An unexpected element in all that tweed.
ReplyDeleteAllie I too like the sequins look. I use to think sequins were 'tacky' but I've been rethinking that theory lately as I see more and more people using them. I'm beginning to buy more myself and use them! I really like the blue ones that you used.
ReplyDeleteI think the sequins are great! It puts a whole different spin on the tote, though, but that's evolution for ya.
ReplyDeleteLove the sparkle of the sequins.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes... love the sequins! They draw your eye along the seamline nicely... yummers!
ReplyDeleteNot even close to Bob Mackie. I love the subtle use of them -- frankly you could probably do more in the "fields" of color and not just along the seams to add a bit more punch.
ReplyDeleteAllie, Love the sequins, but you know me--if it doesn't sparkle it isn't finished!
