It's done.

I don't have much time to write about it today (or get it on the form straight, evidently), but I did the last of the sewing on the white top.

I ended up putting one row of the very narrow galloon and one of the narrow beading lace at the hem. This seems to balance the rest of the lace without drawing too much attention to itself, and if I wanted, I could make a drawstring at the hem at some point, by threading ribbon through.
