I have made a doily with a lace bow - love making new doilies and the temptation with this design was too strong - and this is the result :-)

The lace bow design is from Just Lace collection from Sue Box.
Hugs, Lidia

Lidia, you keep showing us how to think outside the box...love it! How do you manage to make the fabric centre? I'm assuming that you use w/s stabilizer but when do you cut away the fabric to give the lace edging? Using your ideas I stitched out a doily with Sue's geranium corner and her versatile doily #1 yesterday...I just put it to soak to remove the w/s stabilizer so it's not ready for a picture yet. Maybe later!!

Thanks for your comment. In order to attach the fabric centre to the water soluble stabilizer, I have created an inner contour stitching in my software. After the contour stitching has been stitched out onto the fabric, I have trimmed the fabric and then stitched the free-standing lace design. I can't wait to see your geranium doily :-)
Hugs, Lidia

That makes such good sense! I'll have to try it one day. Right now I'm on a roll making several doilies using Sue's designs. They are just fabulous. Thanks for your help. Avis

Sounds like I might be able to make one. What size inner circle did you use? I don't have software so your help would be appreciated?

This is so pretty. I looked twice before I realised it is the bow design.

Thanks for your comment and thanks again for the correction: it's a bow and not just a ribbon :-)

Everytime I see one of your doily's, I wish I had a bigger hoop size.
I would love to be able to make all these gorgeous designs like you do, but will continue to admire the ones you create.
Hugs
