Lace Heart
A free standing lace heart alphabet that stands alone once the stabiliser is rinsed away.
Lace Heart alphabet embroidery designs
Every letter sits in a lace heart. Use them as gift tags, wedding favours, Valentine's keepsakes or ornaments.
Tips for free standing lace
- Hoop two layers of a good quality water soluble stabiliser, or one layer of a heavy fibrous one
- Use the same thread in the bobbin as on top, as both sides will show
- Rinse in warm water, then lay flat or shape over a form to dry
- Slow your machine down a little for the best results
Tips for stitching alphabet letters
- Line up your letters in your machine software or with a printed template before you hoop
- Stitch a test letter on scrap fabric with the same stabiliser first
- On towels and textured fabrics, add a water soluble topper so the stitches sit on top
Full set or single letters
You can buy the complete alphabet set to use again and again, or just the letters you need for one name or monogram. Check the free designs page too, as a different alphabet letter is free each day.
