Pictures of rainbow velvet, as requested...

Finished the first dress from the rainbow material, just a plain raglan style, a-line curved waistline skirt w/side slits, back keyhole opening. Below is a picture of the fabric I used.

have you got any more of that? or can you tell me where you found it? if it's stretch, it would make for awesome tights, if not, maybe a period shirt

eek- You may have to go to nyc to get it. I lucked out and got a 2 yard piece on ebay for fairly cheap, but it normally sells for rather more than that when you can find it. Expect to pay a minimum of 15-20 a yard if you can find it in nyc (you *might* be able to find it in philly). Remind me to do so and I'll cut you a swatch to take with you for matching purposes. The skating dress in those pictures was the first one to sell at the sale this past weekend, so I'm a bit loathe to part with the remaining piece, which is just enough to make another dress
