What do you do with a lace flower vase? Create a doily for a real flower vase, of course... :)
I have repeated the single lace vase design four times in my software and it has been easy to stitch it out.This design is called Old Lace Vase and comes from the Designer Lace Collection by Sue Box.

Thank you, Chris. This is one of the many works of art created by Sue Box and I wasn't sure how to use it. When I tried to create a doily, in my software, I was amazed by the result.

117001781941Oh so pretty--beautiful in fact. I made the mistake on your other doily--My necklace was not made with that design from Sue Box. Finally bought a camera and when I learn how to mess with it I will be free from all the waiting I always have to do. Your doily is exceptional.

Thank you, Penny, but I cannot take the credit for the design's perfect alignment as my software has done it for me.

That's good to know! Here I was feeling like a complete failure. I just learned a new trick of the trade. Thanks! I think my software does that too. I'll have to explore it more. I haven't been very proactive in learning more about my software.

I haven't made any doilies or embroidery projects by hand when I was young and now I enjoy using my modern embroidering machine. It helps when you find a wonderful digitizer producing such great designs. Thanks for your comment. Hugs, Lidia

360641Another beautiful doily Lidia, as soon as I saw it in the news letter I knew I had to come tell you so. Do you remove the overlap stitches in the middle or stitch over them? Oh I just read through & saw your answer, nice to have that kind of software. Good to know too ~hugs~

Even the cheapest software lets you do marvellous things and I'm happy about that, I would be lost without my software. Thanks for your comment, Loralye.

1457911113764178166021224102962104424331Hi Lidia, did you do this in one hooping? and did your software remove
the hidden stitches from the overlap?

Yes, I have stitched this doily out in one hooping, in my 200x200mm (20x20cm / 8x8" approx.) hoop. The software that I am using to copy the finished design to the USB stick, to be inserted into my machine, also removes the hidden stitches from the overlap. Hugs, Lidia
