If you have not stitched out any lace embroidery designs you might be surprised to find how easy this technique is. The secret is using a wonderful product "water soluble stabilizer", and beautifully digitized designs from Jenny Haskins Lace Glorious Lace designs.

One of the frustrations of purchased lace is the limited number of colors available. By creating your own lace, the color choices are limitless and your projects can now be truly customized for each project.

Sew, let's get started.

Transfer the lace embroidery designs of your choice from Jenny Haskins Lace Glorious Lace design CD to your embroidery machine.

Place two layers of water soluble stabilizer in your embroidery hoop and attach the hoop to your embroidery machine.

To create the softest lace embroidery designs choose a 40 wt embroidery thread for the needle and a light weight bobbin thread. (The weight of the bobbin thread greatly effects the softness of your finished lace...the lighter weight, the softer the finished lace.)

If you want the back of your lace to be the same color as the front of the use a matching bobbin.

Once you have your machine properly thread, the hoop attached to the machine and the lace embroidery designs loaded, you are ready to go! Simply start embroidering. When your design is completed remove it from the hoop and rinse away the water soluble stabilizer according to the manufacturer's directions. Once the you rinse out the stabilizer, let it dry and attach the beautiful lace to your project!

Adding lace embroidery designs to your projects will take them from "Ordinary to ExtraOrdinary"!
