and now I'm trying my hand at making a lace bowl & doily. I hate to waste all but the center used in the design (especially at the price I paid). I know not to put the iron directly on it, should I put it between cloth or waxed paper, what temp should I set the iron on? Will someone fill in a few details for me? Thanks, Judy

That was a tip from me.
I do not know the name in English, but that plastic that you used for towels, not so dusty for FSL.
The plastic pieces can be put between wax paper and then ironing, start on a low setting, look when he will attach to each other. Maybe you can raise the temperature slightly and then you've a new sheet.

Great question and thank you. I have several pieces of my own I can iron together.

It's the plastic looking Sulky Solvy type WSS that can be ironed between pieces of paper for blending together. The Ultra Solvy is the thickest one and works fine for FSL. The others- super solvy and sovy, are good for toppings on t's and towels, but cannot support fsl stitching.

Thank you very much for these inputs - now I know what to do with this valuable material. I had the same thoughts and didn't want to throw it away. So I used to fold the parts
together but this isn't too satisfying. So I am happy to
learn about the ironing method you describe.
Thanks a lot

You can also keep a spary bottle of water and add some of the smaller pieces to it , and use it for your lace work if you want to make them a bit stiff or to re-shape them. hugs Yvonne
