Here is a piece, not finished. I am tryig to put a veil on her and have tried ribbon, lace etc and still not there. I think I will make a tiny pattern out of organza and just fraycheck it. Any other brilliant idea? Thanks for looking! Oh I made the stand years ago when I was playing with clay.

Thank you so much, I am going back to clay just to make stands for some FSL pieces. I do seem to get stuck though. It is hard for me to consider any of my pieces complete. You can always add more.

It is sweet the way it is but I would cut a circle of netting and fold in half gather slightly and add a fsl motif or flower like what she is holding or on her neck area. I'd make it very simple.

sounds great thanks! I wonder if the smallest silk flowers are too big.

I love this piece!
You could use the organza. If you have decorative stitches on your machine, you could use a decorative edge stitch catching the raw edge or make your own scalloped edge. If you don't have those stitches -- come on over and use my machine. I would be happy to share with you. ;)

You may be onto something. Unfortunately my crochet days are over due to numb fingers. Thanks
