Re: Paper dresses by Isabelle de Borchgrave

Years ago our local newspaper had a yearly ball for staff and friends, a part of the evening was a competition pitting each section of the paper against the other by creating a ball gown from newspaper. They had to use The Edmonton Journal of course and would watch all year for particularly decorative pages to use in their creations for colour and pattern etc. The end product was worn by a 'model' from the section and they were judged with a winner crowned. It was highly competitive and the creations were amazing - I'm sure The Edmonton Journal in Edmonton, Edmonton Alberta Canada could provide far more information and photos if you are interested! Keep up the great work - I've been sewing for 50 years or so and I still learn something new from every magazine Thanks!! Bev Armstong
