Aha. Now I'm wondering why I've never tried before to sew tatting on with a sewing machine!
I cut the braid one ring below where I wanted it and unraveled that ring. I could have hidden those ends in the usual tatting way, but I threaded them through to the wrong side of the fabric and did a couple of stitches there. I thought that would help anchor the tatting to the fabric.
Works great, Yay 😍
ReplyDeleteI've machine-sewn a braid on a bedsheet before because the lace was green and the sheet yellow. With machine, I could use green top thread and yellow below. There's a post somewhere in my blog.
Ok, I used green thread on top and white underneath.
DeleteNicely done! If I ever get past Ice Drops, I'll have to give this a try!
ReplyDeleteYou could use ice drops instead of cloth flowers!
DeleteIt's wonderful!!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt does work! Well done!! I wish we could take a tour of your house to feel and admire your curtains. OK, I've just got cabin fever now!
ReplyDeleteI think I’m inoculated against cabin fever after years of living in isolated places. But I have a lot of sympathy for those who suddenly find themselves confined and aren’t used to it.
DeleteGlad you tried this 😃 now we know it works💐😃💐
