Those designs are remarkably like the hand made version. This is why we need
really close up photos to accurately identify a piece of lace. We need photos
where each individual thread is visible. The overall design isn't enough. If
this is machine embroidery, I can only think "chemical
I have just received my last bookmark from Sue Vossier France.
It is a beautiful light blue with spiders, Sue's own design, also a lovely

Thanks again Sue.

stabilizer tended to get sticky and start to dissolve all on its
