Lady and Valentine Hearts Bowl and Doily Set

Our FSL Bowls are embroidered in the same way as ornaments. So please read the General Guidelines first.

Some points to remember from the General Guidelines:
Use Vilene water soluble stabilizer;
Use the same thread for the upper and bobbin to get two-sided embroidery.
DO NOT embroider several designs in one hoop.

Here are the instructions on how to make the Lady with Hearts Valentine Heart Bowl and Doily Set.

Valentine Heart Bowl and Doily Set

To make the bowl, you'll have to embroider six bowl panels, which is in the upper left corner on the picture, and the hexagon for the bottom.

Use 2 layers of Vilene-type water-soluble stabilizer and use the same thread for both
the needle and bobbin to get 2-sided embroidery. Rinse the stabilizer and leave to air dry.

Impotant Note: It's very important to use as small a hoop as possible. E.g. if your design is for a small hoop, use the small hoop, not the large one; if your design is for a large hoop, use large, not mega. Do not try to embroider several freestanding lace designs in one hoop. This is because all water-soluble stabilizers stretch, and in a bigger hoop, it's going to stretch more. This can lead to the design falling apart after the stabilizer is dissolved. It's always better to embroider one part at a time.

Press all parts with steam. Continue as you would with any other freestanding bowl. Read instructions in our Guide to Assembling a Freestanding Bowl.

To make this doily, you'll have to embroider six doily panels and stitch them together. The doily panel is the first part in the second row on the picture.

Use 2 layers of Vilene-type water-soluble stabilizer. For the doily, you can use white bobbin thread as it doesn't have to be two-sided. Rinse the stabilizer and leave to air dry. Press with steam and stitch the parts together using invisible thread.

This set has two additional designs - a medallion with a girl holding hearts and 2 hearts. These parts can be used as FSL embelishments - ornaments, tags, etc.

This set could make a gorgeous gift on a Valentine day. Enjoy!
