Anita's Lace Tutorial Part 2: Lace Border Embroidery Project

This example shows design LAHD6 laid out end to end. This would be a great border for sheets, pillowcases or linens.

This example shows design LAHD10. By rotating and flipping the design you can create a wonderful border. As with any border, all of the pieces are embroidered first and then sewn together using a sewing machine. You could lightly tack together the edges that touch, or arrange the pieces on the item you are embellishing and zig zag in place. Usually when doing this you will be trimming away fabric behind the lace to have a see through effect. When stitching the lace in place, use the embroidery thread to match in your machine needle.
