[project update] Swan Dress

I really don't like beading.  Makes me all sorts of not right in the head. However, I love how it comes out in a project. I especially love how it feels when it is applied to velvet.  Fortunately for me, Swabian dresses usually only have one sleeve of the dress beaded.  The Swan Dress is based roughly on this dress. I am making progress, but there are a lot of beads to go.

Neat.
I have to learn beading at some point for a hat for my riches heures dresses project. To which I really need to get back to, when times allows :)
