The lace on the tablerunner is from AnitaGoodesign and each piece took approx 1 hour to stitch out. The butterflies are cutwork FSL and are from John Deer (Adorable Ideas) unfortunately this design is only available if you attend a John Deer workshop ie. you are not able to purchase it. Cheers Claire

Thank you Shirlene, yes the project spanned many many weeks with the pieces of lace being done in between other projects. Cheers Claire
That is what I thought - lots of work and taking your time with it and breaking up your time also helps.

Thanks Kerry. I already had the table runner done before our challenge was determined so I decided to do the matching doily as my challenge. Cheers Claire

Beautiful tablerunner. The lace must have been a labour of love, so many stitches, but the result is breathtaking. Great work!

Thank you, I am fortunate to have 2 embroidery machines so I was able to set one running doing the lace whilst I did other things on the other machine.

Beautiful. Very nice job, could you please tell me how to attach the lace to the main material and get a nice finish like you have.
3 comments
Thank you. Firstly I stich the lace together. To attach the lace I start with a piece of fabric about 2 inches larger on all sides than the hole in the middle of the lace. I make sure the fabric is well starched (quite stiff) place the lace on top and measure in numerous spots to ensure it is even, then I do a tack down row using straight stitching (this is easier to remove if there is a problem). Once I am happy with how it is sitting I trim the fabric back to just outside the stitching - a bit like applique, then I do a wide satin stitch which covers the straight stitching and the fabric edge. Hope this helps. Cheers Claire
Thank you so much for the help, your work is beautiful
Thank you, happy to help. Cheers Claire
