I am making another peasant blouse. It's black and I want to put a little sparkle on it using sequins (black). Does anyone have any suggestions and what is the best way to sew them on, by hand?

Thanks a bunch,

Dawn

Hmmm, I would think sewing them on by hand using invisible thread would work. I have never sewn on sequins, so I would suggest trying it with scrap fabric first to see which look you like better.
