Good explanation Nadira! One thing I might add is that if you're planning on cutting up and using the "stock" veil for the panel (which I've done), you can try to use the beaded edge for the bottom hem of the panel. This has a very professional look. How you do this will depend on the shape of the veil. If it's semi-circular, use the "pie-wedge" method that Nadira decribed, making the beaded edge the pie "crust," if you will. If the veil is rectangular, use method #1 in Nadira's post.
One caveat -- because you're cutting the fabric, you'll need to secure the beads where you've cut their thread, otherwise you'll end up with beads all over the dance floor (and in your feet!). You can do this by knotting and/or a small dab of fabric glue on the thread so that it doesn't run. Good luck!!
