Placemat with Dantela Lace Corners

This heirloom placemat with standalone lace corners has been created by Bobbie Berry. Bobbie, thank you so much for the beautiful project!
The lace corners are from Dantela Lace corners set. They've been embroidered on water soluble backing, then machine sewn to rose linen tablemap. Only after attaching the lace corner, the backing was washed away, leaving a clean and beautiful cloth. After attaching the laces to fabric base, the backing was carefully washed away, leaving a clean and beautifully looking item. Notice the color palette of this project. Bobbie selected the famous Hollandic blue & white color palette, and it came out very unusual due to this color selection.

To embroider the lace Bobbie used ThreaDelight matching color top & bobbin thread and water soluble backing fabric.

To make similar projects, you'll need to have the following supplies in stash:

• "Dantela Lace for Table"designs set
• Strong, NOT stretchy polyester thread. Preferably top and bobbin thread in matching colors.
• Water-soluble backing- preferably fabric-type water-soluble stabilizer.
• A piece of medium to heavy weight fabric, in nice color. We would suggest to use monocolor fabric, like in this project.
