Why is it beneficial to use several colors and sizes of rhinestones on your dance and skate dresses?
Create depth and texture by mixing rhinestones with sew-on jewels in a variety and sizes.
On a package of rhinestones, what do the details indicate?
P.S. Please excuse the fact that I keep saying "Czechoslovakian" rhinestones. I learned that as part of my geography, countries and capitals in high school, plus that is what we said in the 1990s when I began using rhinestones... it's a difficult habit to stop saying. I apologize for any offense; none is intended.
Lastly, check out Nikki's gorgeous Smooth dance dresses that are blinged out beautifully, AND fit her curvy figure perfectly!

I KNOW THESE COURSES WORK.
The training in the RHINESTONE TECHNIQUES COURSE and RHINESTONE TECHNIQUES & BRACELETS COURSE is the exact same training available in the Latin-Skate Dressmaker School and the Ballroom Dressmaker School.
... This is how I know it works. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of dresses made by the sewing school members. And if you looked at the images and videos on this page featuring dresses made by my Sew Like A Pro™ members, you will also see that my courses work.
YOU HAVE 24/7, LIFETIME ACCESS to all workshops and courses in which you enroll.
P.S. "Lifetime" means: As long as the internet exists. Until you leave this earth. Or, until several years after Teresa croaks and there is no one to teach the live sessions and pay the bills.
I believe in you. YOU CAN SEW DO THIS!
