Brilliant idea!
I was gathering a bunch of Threads magazines that I inherited from a coworker of my dear fiance, and saw a gorgeous hem. I can't find a picture online, but it's basically a hand-picked hem with French knots decorating the stitches on the right side. See, hand-picked hems are nice but it drives me nuts to see the stitches on the right side, even if they are tiny. So this takes a bug and turns in into a feature by making the stitches decorative. Then I remembered the Threads article about beading the stitches on a hand-picked zipper (pic above). So I'm thinking hand-picked hem with beads for the wedding dress. It'll add just a touch of sparkle without going too overboard, I hope.
