Greetings! Good news: I have almost finished it! I have now used "invisible stitching" to hold the fabric to the Cocktail Umbrella. This means when the Parasol is collapsed, it folds in with the framework of the Umbrella itself. All that's left to do is add a trim and a handle grip - we are so close!! Very exciting! As you can see, the method I am using means that there are just tiny stitches from the top, but longer stitches on the bottom. This method is quite tedious, however it delivers good results.

Greetings! Update: I have sewed a 'Dart' into the circle so it fits snug with the cocktail Umbrella  I also snipped a little hole into the top of the fabric so it slips over the top!! Its starting to take shape... Yours, The Miniature Studio

Greetings! Now I am going to do my first side project. My aim is to make a miniature parasol alongside the Over Dress Project.  It would be really nice to have one for the final photoshoot!! Things I am using: Cocktail Umbrella Circle of floral fabric Needle & Cotton thread Pins Lace trim Follow along if you wish and I will try to keep you updated!!! Yours, The Miniature Studio
