Final Product: What You Will Create

Step 1:

Cut a piece of Solvy that is a little larger than your hoop.

Step 2:

Hoop Solvy, making sure that it is hooped very tightly.

Step 3:

Place hoop onto your machine and embroider the lace design of your choice.

Step 4:

Once the design is done embroidering - remove the design from the machine and gently remove the excess Solvy from around the outside of the design.

Step 5:

Then add hot/warm water to your container. The water should be high enough in the bowl so that the entire lace sun catcher will be submerged.

Step 6:

Place your lace design inside the container. Let the design soak for about 10-15 minutes. This will remove the Solvy from the design.

Step 7:

Remove the design from the water and blot dry with the paper towel. Let it dry.

Step 8:

Iron the lace sun catcher if desired, making sure to place a thin cloth over the lace so it does not get scorched by the iron. Now your lace sun catcher is completed and ready to hang your window.
