so... I still have a Paypal credit hanging around.

so I thought... hmm.  maybe I will order... a couple of DVD's or something...

but Amazon doesn't take Paypal. grrr.

I also thought I *might* *might* order a bolt of silk. & make up some veils  - I want a 4 yard.  and most of my students prefer working with something a little more than 3 yard.

but it looks like  Dharma Trading doesn't take Paypal either.


*sigh*

hugs welcome.

I've been eyeing the veils by Daisy Hill Silks.

She does some lovely red/burgundy mixes.

Her prices are very reasonable, but I haven't ordered from her.

Sedonia Sipes custom dyed one for me at a very reasonable price also. She used a very heavy silk. I could send you her email address if you are interested.

I'm considering ordering a bolt because I don't see a lot of 4 yards at a price I'm willing to pay. So I figured if I'm ordering a bolt - and dying it myself - make it worth it right?

Ooooh, those are yummy -- thank you! :)

I think I prefer lighter silk, but so far I've only worked with one 8mm veil.

Four yards sounds really bulky and difficult to whip around, hmmmm.

I have several 3 yard silks. They are great but... when I use chiffon my veil is almost 3.5 yards. Besides - I'm thinking 4 might be fun - for big spaces. Especially since it is supposed to float not whip. Yes - 2.5 or even 3 is better for tight spaces.

I thought... you were asking for 8mm which is what I consider heavy (compared to 5 or 6 mm)

Whip around, twirl around, you know... spin with, etc. Yeah, it should float. Chiffon's too heavy IMO. I didn't know 8mm was considered heavy. :) I definitely have to work in small spaces. Hmmm, I need to learn more!
