”Insertion Lace - Hearts”
Norma Betz’s Project

Norma writes: “This was my first attempt at this kind of sewing. I fell in love with the design and had to use it on the dress. I was so pleased with the way it turned out. I am working on a dress for my 3 year old grand daughter to match.

”Insertion Lace - Hearts”

“Insertion Lace - Hearts” is an heirloom technique that can be stitched on most fabrics. The designs require fabric, water soluble stabilizer, and an optional wing needle.  They can be sewn all one color or in multiple colors. (This travel/baby size pillowcase is a Lingerie Bag from EmbroiderThis.)
