Hi Fran,
I know you submitted the following article several years ago but I
thought I would take a chance and see if you could help me since your
answer was so good.
I have purchased 11 yards of tuille to make a Net Bath Puff costume
for Halloween.
I have been searching the net for help with making it. I was thinking
of having the middle of the puff be at my waist with some kind of
elastic (I will be attaching the puff to a teeshirt) so I can pull it
over my head. My second idea was to make 2 puffs one for the front
and one for the back. Any suggestions????
