Thanks Lor. hugs4u2

Carolyn: These are so lovely!! I noticed the WSS you used, do you like it better than the other style of WSS (the fabric type)? I have never used this type, do you think it works better, is it what you usually use? You do a lot of FSL, & all of your work is so beautiful & perfect. Thank you so much for sharing with us!! Hugs & flowers, Tammy

I like Suzanne's suggestion, much too elegant and too much work, for anything less :) Your work is amazing Carolyn! Just beautiful!

Simply awesome. Lots of effort but worth it.hugs

yes there was hugs

Beautiful.I would stitch it on the background fabric before soaking the wss out of it - much easier.
Please post the finished product - in THIS post, just edit it and add a picture.

thanks ***i am at camp for a few days So it will be Sat. night late or Sunday now ok

This is beautiful! I don't think I would sew it to fabric. I think I would use it as a mat in a frame with a wedding photo....maybe one of you and John, so you could keep it for yourself. Gorgeous!

Fabulous! My machine would die before I'd get something that intricate stitched out. I'm looking forward to seeing it stitched on fabric. It has that nice inner edge so it should not be a hassle to apply it.

thanks Vicki hugs

This is sensational. I love all these things FSL, and this one is magnificent. I know that many sites give tips, but it would be nice to know how tio proceed embroiderers, here. For example, what type of stabilizer did you use? What needle? And which thread? You speak from 3 to 4 bobbins per piece, but how many rolls? My bobbins have 6,000 yards ... Nothing better than the expertise to tell us..
Thank you for sharing, have a nice day
Hugs,Céline

Gorgeous....please come back and update this post with the finished doily...it is stunning! Do your instructions indicate you rinse the WSS out before you stitch it to the fabric?

nope i sew it then rinse it .Thats just how i do it hugs

by dragonflyer 19 Aug 2015

Thanks, Carolyn...I also sew to fabric first then rinse...I was a bit confused as you said up in your post, all you had to do was bath it and then sew it onto fabric.

Beautiful! I admire your courage and persistance! :)

Beautiful designs, Carolyn! Your doily will be sensational.
Do the instructions state that you have to rinse the designs first before sewing them onto fabric?. What kind of thread have you used (polyester, cotton, rayon...
Hugs, Lidia
