Hi, this is the first time I've visited any sewing blog, or any blog for that matter! All of your posts sound so informed and knowledgeable. Can someone help me with a few questions? I'm tackling designing a copy of the "breakfast at Tiffany's" dress for my niece's wedding dress and I'm working with heavier weight poly bridal satin. This is all so new to me! What kind of thread, needles, lining and interfacing would you suggest for this simple sheath dress? Anyone's advice would be DEEPLY appreciated. Thanks!
