Steps To Complete
|
Begin by stitching each of the three pieces of freestanding lace on your water soluble stabilizer, then dry completely (here's more on stitching freestanding lace). Take your back piece and front bottom envelope piece and stitch them together, right sides facing away from each other. |
|
If the pieces don't match up perfectly, it's OK! That's the nature of lace. You may need to pinch the sides in together as you stitch around the envelope. |
|
Next, stitch along the top edge of the envelope flap and the top of your back piece, leaving the top flap open along the scalloped edge. |
|
This is what your stitched envelope should look like when you're finished. |
