Mini Tablemap with Dantela Lace Frame and Medallion:
This antique-style tablemap with standalone frame and center trim has been accomplished by Bobbie Berry. Bobbie, thank you so much for the gorgeous project!
The lace frame was assembled from Dantela Lace border & corner elements, that have been embroidered on water soluble backing separately. After that, the embroideries have been hand stitched together, and machine sewn to rose linen tablemap. The medallion in the very middle was attached in similar way. After attaching the laces to fabric base, the backing was carefully washed away, leaving a clean and beautifully looking item.
To embroider the laces, Bobbie used ThreaDelight matching color top & bobbin thread, and water soluble backing fabric.
Required supplies:
Dantela Lace designs (available here...)
Water soluble backing - preferably fabric-type water soluble (available here...)
Temporary adhesive spray (available here...)
Strong poly embroidery thread for the lace design. You may use regular poly thread, but if your machine takes L-size bobbins, we highly recommend you to get a special thread kit with prewound bobbins in matching colors. It will save you plenty of time. Lace designs are stitch-intensive and take a lot of bobbin thread.
Before you rush to embroider or assemble complex lace decorations from pieces, please be sure to read through the instruction that comes along with the designs that you've purchased. It includes clear and detailed explanation of the entire process.
