@@namasteandcrochet You are AWESOME !!😍 Congrats on your wedding! I wish you and your dearest the best for this new chapter of your life. May it be filled with some more awesomeness
On pearl beading. 99% of all the pearls I own for beading purposes have itty bitty holes and must be secured with a special superfine beading needle. The needles I use are sold as "pearl needles," they're so thin you can bend them and tie them in a knot. They're super annoying to thread, and you might need to use a thinner thread and double it back for strength. I begin by pre-threading 10 or so needles, so I dont need to stop so frequently and because threading multiple needles at a time seems to make each threading attempt quicker than the last, rather than re-threading a single needle every 5 or so minutes, which never (seems to) get faster.
ugh yes working with pearls is tough no matter which way you do it. I learned a lot this time and hopefully I'll be able to work with them again in the future with less stress lol!
Congratulations to the Bride and Groom! You look breath taking, stunning and absolutely gorgeous. Groom looks fabulous. I Love your wedding dress!!! Wishing you both all of the best that life has to offer. May your lives be filled with a lifetime of Love, Joy and Happiness. ❤ 🤗 😊
Every time you said you were going to change something I wanted to say Nooo. But your visions proved how talented you are. Such a beautiful bride and dress.
I'm not going to lie, I'm in tears. Your dress is the most gorgeous handmade wedding gown I've yet to see. This video came up randomly in my feed and I'm glad I watched. Thank you for sharing.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! As a fellow crocheted I too love crocheting garments. The alterations you made in the back did improve your gown. May God bless you and your union! 🙏🙏🙏
Truly a beautiful dress!! I’m in awe of your talent. And that final bustle was amazing. And, yes, every time you talked about cutting (or actually did), I got REALLY nervous. 😅 Also, I do hope you use or go back to the mid section pattern that you changed. It, too, had a great look!
That was a stunning piece of art! I can't imagine making something that amazing on my own. And it fit you perfectly! BTW good call on the Duchesse veil too. Still in awe.
Congratulations to you both! You looked absolutely beautiful and your dress is stunning! I almost had a heart attack when you cut the back to rework it because things didn't work out very well when I've done that. The second heart attack was when your adorable little nephew went for the thread...😳 It all worked out great in the end! Thanks for sharing your creative process! May you have a lifetime of happiness! 💕
Wow. Your gown is beautiful. I gasped when you too those scissors to the back but seeing the alteration made sense. May I suggest getting some big eye beading needles? Congrats on your wedding!
If anybody could create magic out of cutting up a crochet gown, it would be you. And the artistry to your beading cannot be taught. The dress is awesome. Wished I were brave enough to design my own wedding dress.
Congratulations Dominique!!!! 🎉💕🎉💕🎉💕🥂🍾🥂🍾. It was absolutely INCREDIBLE to see the making of your gorgeous, GORGEOUS dress. You looked sensational babe!!!! Love you!!! 😘😘😘
Congratulations to you and your husband on your beautiful wedding 🎉. Your dress is so stunning. Thank you for sharing this process with all of us. I know I loved seeing how happy you were making your dress and to see you so thrilled with its completion. Perfection at its finest. Thank you again. I wish you all the happiness, love and strength.
What an inspiration you are!!!Congratulations!!! Beautiful dress! Wishing you happy lives together and thank you for inspiring people with your creative ❤🎉❤
Just GORGEOUS 😍 you did an amazing job on your wedding dress, I mean, I think at some point all crocheters dream of creating something as special like this but so few of us actually accomplish it so bravo 👏 👏 Out of curiosity, did you find that as time went on any parts of your work stretched out as it got bigger and heavier? Especially when you added beads? I’m sure your yarn was amazing quality so that maybe helped negate stretching possibly, I don’t have a lot of experience in crocheting fitted items so had to ask 😋 Congratulations & all the best in your new marriage!
great question- I use a very strong cotton for all my dresses and stitch very tightly so they hold their shape. I will say that the back fit much better until I added the lace and beading which is why I decided to chop it. I would attribute that more to the lace pattern than the yarn. If you want to make a dress- go with cotton and a tight gauge ;)
Gurl ! I mean, Ma'am !! You free handed this ??🤯
Lol. Yes I did 🫠
