Vintage Lace Doily
Hi Everyone,
I made this doily using the Vintage Lace collection from Snow Lady Designs. These designs are so neat and remind me of the crocheted dimensional flowers found on old linens. The text file included with the designs gives exact instructions to create the floral blocks as well as hints for the best threads and stabilizers to use. Here’s how I made the doily.
Supplies:
Vintage Lace -Snow Lady Designs
Embroidery threads - I used white and a light, medium and dark blue
Water soluble stabilizer

Umbrella
Dear Stichery Mall users
Here we have done an umbrella with our job collection
You have to cut the fabric from the umbrella. Then put a ribbon around the umbrella bones, so you can hold it in your hand during embroidery.
Now hoop the umbrella fabric in your machine. Use an underlayer down and solvy on top also.
Then embroider in slow motion!
Don’t go away from the machine.
There will be no water coming down through the embroidery, I promise.
If your finished umbrella is wet from rain, leave it open to dry. After you have done all 8 segments, sew the fabric by hand to the scelett from the umbrella.
Wish you happy stitching

Cutwork Instructions-Designs4Africa
Instructions:
1. Hoop 1 layer of dissolvable Vilene. (I hoop it with a frame of felt to keep the Vilene taut in the hoop.)
2. Spray the Vilene with a thin layer of Adhesive Spray like 505.
3. Place your fabric on the Vilene. Use a fine woven fabric like silk dupione, linen or cotton. The important thing to remember is that the fabric must be fine woven. I also spray the fabric with spray starch and iron it after every layer of spray starch.
4. Attach the hoop to the machine.
5. Stitch the first color 1302. I like to use rayon embroidery thread for my cutwork embroidery.
6. Remove the hoop from the machine.
7. Now you have to cut the fabric on the inside of the running stitches.

Aunty M’s Noah’s Ark Applique
The applique pocket for Aunty M’s Noah’s Ark applique design creates a pocket to store animal finger puppets. The design begins with the rainbow and applique cloud. The cloud applique is a standard applique design using three colors: one to stitch a placement line, the second to secure the applique fabric to the base fabric, and the third to cover the raw edge of the fabric. For the cloud, you would need to trim the applique fabric after it has been secured to the base fabric. This graphic shows the design with both applique sections completed.
