Exquisite hand sewn flowers

Post by sapphire »

on Meghan's veil & train, must have taken many hours of work. Dress beautiful too but the hand sewn 53 different flowers were just sooo gorgeous on both. A memorable day all round :D :D :D

One of the patients of St. Joseph's Hospice embroidered the Queen's train.

I would like to see a close up of the flowers sewn onto the veil.

Glad the chapel flowers were given where they can be appreciated and admired.

Stunning dress & veil. Sure was a lot of hard work put into the sewn flowers. Were 53 different flowers to represent Commonwealth countries plus 2 more Meghan chose herself - total of 55 different ones to be very delicately stitched. Embroiderers washed their hands every 30 minutes so as not to mark the fabrics so I read. Great day for everyone.
