Alma's demonstration

Alma has been experimenting - she passes on this quick tutorial....

"
When free machining fine fabric or making lace I find -

1. Embroidery hoops awkward and very restricting

2. Romeo and disolvables better but difficult to remove completely leaving the work hard.

A cardboard frame is much better -

Attatch support threads firmly round the frame in both or all directions. It slips easily

under the needle for stitching. When completed the work can be cut out and extended if desired.


See you soon

A brilliant, brilliantly simple idea- thanks for that.
