These are free standing lace angels that I have done for a couple years. I did these in metallic thread, and the one on right has a little more bling with crystals added. I love this design and have given many of these away.

Very lovely, thanks for sharing.

Your angels are lovely. I have stitched this design out many times as gifts for friends and family. I love the addition of the crystals.

Beautiful angels!/Lillian

This is a lovely design, stitched beautifully. Well done. Sandra.

I had this design and now I can't find it.Where can I get it again? Thank you

They're beautiful dlonna, well done.

These will be a treasured gift - I love giving them away, as well - here is a flower for you.

very cute

Now THIS is the same FSL design that I've just ruined! I am so jealous!! I did mine in plain cotton, perhaps that's where I went wrong!

Try using RA 40, or the metalic. I learned that in using the metalic that I had to slow my stiches down a little. Make sure that you use the same thread in the bobbin. Flower to you for trying!

Ah. I used bobbin thread in the bobbin and cotton as the top thread ... that explains a lot! Thank you! (Flower to you :-) )
I have managed to salvage it and will upload it to let you see how it came out.

That is not bad - we all learn from our mistakes - now some of mine have hit the trash bin - they were actually beyond saving!
