Sequins are a favorite embellishment on garments ranging from fabulous evening gowns to sassy T-shirts and jeans. The 1960s wool dress shown on the back cover goes from basic to festive with the addition of sequined rounds, placed randomly over the front and back. Sequins come in a variety of colors, finishes, sizes, and shapes. Individual sequins must be attached separately, and this can be time-consuming. The embellishment on the back cover dress can be duplicated with sequin trim (DoveOriginalsTrims.com), in which sequins are linked in a row with a chain stitch. The sequins overlap like scales. By applying this type of trim in a spiral, you can easily and relatively quickly create big, glittering dots.
