Hopefully this time you may get to see my latest project. The lace is Criswell and the embroidery design is from Brother Card no 76 .it will sit beautifull on a restored Old Singer Treadly sewing machine that belonged to my dear Mother In Law.

Ta Much. With all I've done over the years this is the first I've been game to put on site. Just did a Cream "Infinity Quilt" for my sister-in-law with dusty pink and Gold More on the way. As I love to sew and make things-which I give to rellies and friends Ros

Yes Dianne it did. But it was a labor of love as I do enjoy sewing etc. I spend a LOT of time sewing. Keeps me sane. When I have a big project on (Quilts ) I like to finish them yesterday, so I sew for around 10-12 hour days .Depending on what I can get away with. Just as well I have an understanding husband.One of my last quilts took 6 weeks to put together and then another 10 days to quilt(by machine) New Pfaff Grand quilter. so no sleepies then . Ta again Ros

I Have photos of the Grand children on it with an old machine my mother gave me when I was around 10 yrs old. You know the one Singer with a handle about 6" high and did a lovely chain stitch. Waiting for the Grand-daughter to show and interest. She's now 9 Ta gain Ros
Oh my - why don't you take a picture of it on the Singer - we would love to see it.

This is lovely Do you have to make the lace and then stitch it to material I have not done lace and would like to
1 comment
Yes I made the lace on 541 Vylene (2 layers) cut it back and then stitched if to the Material after Measureing (Do not wash before stitching as it sits much better and easier to handle. Then I did the embroidering. (Not securing it in the hoop -but using a basting stitch to hold it down. That's why we print out templates too.So we can place it in the right position good luck with your try. Ros

Just out of curiosity, how many hours did this project take? Your mother-in-law is certainly smiling. Beautiful!
1 comment
Thank you for the input. I don't know how long it took as I was going to do a table runner, but the material was pure white and of course looked odd with the Lace. I Suppose about 8-10 hours. Mum was a sewer too and did beautiful grub roses. If she had lived she would have been 100 on the 10 June Love her. Ros
