    I told her to take as long as she needs. She's hand sewing that thing!

    It looks awesome! At Merlesque, mermaid Melusine and I have been debating getting stuck into some hand-sequinned tail-making this winter... still kind of putting it off, it took forever for us just to make our sequined tops, and they're just a tiny fraction of the sewing you need for a tail. But I have to say that following the progress of this tail is definitely making me want to just go for it!

    I have hand tremors, I could never sew plus it was cheaper to ship the scales and tail to her, than ship the scales to me!

    Oh really? That sucks I used to have minor tremors, it was a side effect from the tumour - but I got lucky and with treatment it cleared up. So I guess now I have no excuse not to sew on my own darn sequins haha! Can't believe the shipping thing though, that's crazy. I think if we both do sequin tails we might try to buy wholesale from India or China, it would be cheaper for two tails - but not really worth it for one as you have to buy so many at a time. Do you have a timescale (lol) for when the tail might be finished? Definitely going to have to photoshoot it for us all!

    curious if anyone has heard from this lady in the past while? because the last photo i showed of this almost 2 years ago was the last I ever heard I sent my tail, paid for bags of sequins etc. I totally appreciate now that we have a sequinned tail how much work they are and it may have been too big a project for her but all my emails bounce back.

    I talked to her early last year, and she's been a little active on my blog (liking posts and such) but otherwise I haven't heard from her

    Yeah I just tried reaching out on FB again. I can't find her personal account anymore so I commented on her fanpage.

    Sounds like she bit off more than she could chew or something and dropped off the face of the Earth. Most likely the "or something" option. :I This makes me sad.

    I did tell her she could take as long as she needs, I just didnt think it would be 2 years. lol. I'm still happy to wait if it's being worked one.
