STITCHING YOUR LACE DESIGN
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
First, hoop 2 pieces of Wash-Away stabilizer.
NOTE: We suggest 2 pieces of water-soluble stabilizer for
most free standing designs, but if you’re using a 5” x 7”
hoop or smaller, you can get away with just 1 piece!
Run the free standing lace embroidery, being sure to swap
out bobbins that match your top thread colors (inset).
When the design is finished stitching, remove it from the
hoop and trim away any excess stabilizer. Rinse your
trimmed out design in hot water, being sure to rinse or rub
the stitches to remove all the stabilizer. Lay flat to dry.
Your Free Standing Lace design is now finished!
