- Domestic sewing machine
- Embroidery hoop
- Transparent/dissolving fabric
- Thread
Thread the machine as normal but make sure the teeth are down, this will stop the fabric from ripping. Also the foot needs to be off so that the hoop can fit underneath the needle
Place the dissolving fabric into the embroidery hoop
Once the embroidery hoop is placed under the needle you are free to make any design you wish to! Be totally creative
Heres my final design I based it on flowers and the way they grow freely. Once you have got to this stage you need to release the dissolving fabric from the hoop and place it on a plate. The plate is used so that when you run the dissolving fabric under the warm water the lace doesn't run down the plug!
Make sure you use warm water not boiling and you don't drown the tread as it will just wash away.
