Christmas Machine Embroidery Free Standing Lace

 

Happy New Year's Eve Friends!

 

Remember  my Christmas gift?  The OESD Cd's?  Well here is what I have been busy with.

 

 

Even though these got stitched after Christmas it is still nice to have them on my tree.

 

These are pretty machine embroidery free standing lace designs with applique.  The red fabric I used to applique with is red velvet!  Beautiful red velvet!  To stitch them out I used water soluble stabilizer on both the top and bottom.

 

The water soluble stabilizer on the bottom was hooped then I floated the velvet and top water soluble stabilizer. 

Then I bought a yard of the pearls to make the hangers.

 

I am partial to free standing lace designs that have applique.  The applique gives the designs a unique look because you could use any color or design of fabric.  I love the velvet, both the look and the feel of it. 

Hope you enjoy the last of my Christmas designs, at least for a while.

 

Warm winter blessings from my house to yours.
