| These handsome placemat and doily are sewn with the FSL
Applique Lace Daisy Border. For the placemat, we used 2 stitch-outs
for the mega hoop, and for the doily we used 4 stitch-outs for the large
(5" x 7") hoops. |
|
You will need a piece of fabric about 14" x 21".
Prepare 2 stitch-outs of the FSL
Applique Lace Daisy Border. |
|
| Finish the long raw edges of the fabric. For this, fold the raw edges
1/4" back and press. Fold again 1/4" and press. Topstitch in place. |
|
| Position the applique stitch-outs on the short raw edges. Baste
or pin in place. |
|
| Stitch the pattern to the fabric. Use short, but not very dense zig-zag.
Both in the needle and in the bobbin, use thread of the same color as the
embroidery. |
|
| Cut away the excess fabric close to the stitches. |
|
| Stitch again, using very dense zig-zag. Both in the needle and in the
bobbin, use thread of the same color as the embroidery. |
|
| The placemat is done! The finished size is 14" x 20". |
|
|
Doily
|
| The finished size of the doily is about 15" x 15". You will need a
piece of fabric measuring about 15" x 15" and 4 stitch-outs of the FSL
Applique Lace Daisy Border for the large hoop. |
|
| Attach the embroidered patterns to the fabric as described above. Be
sure to use the same thread both in the needle and in the bobbin. That's
all it takes! |

|
Happy Stitching!
