Creebead..
I have hide on my cloth dress... I thought of putting ribbon on also. I had the hide in one hand and the ribbon on the other.
I decided on the hide instead. I have seen sum really nice dresses with fringes NOT made of hide. (Even one lady who had a fully bead top!!) I have also seen some ladies who cut fringes from cloth that "looked" like white bucksin. It had me fooled for a bit... then I got close enuff to check it out.
Whatever tickles ur fancy, I guess! If it works... it works. All the dresses looked good. Juss make sure the ribbons don't fray. There is also this nifty thing called "Fray Away" that you could put on the ends of ur ribbon. Most fabric stores and Walmart have it!!! *L* Let's juss say the the lighter thing didn't work for me. :p
Whatever u decide to do... Juss be proud of your dress! I'm sure you've put in the hard work in making it.
That sounds like a neat idea... Velcro for the fringes!! I'll have to try that on my sisters dress. Thanx Lapis Queen.
Good Luck on ur dress... Creebead
