Hello Sue -- I have just finished one of Hanne Sonne's angels, I
left it on the pillow just as I worked it, with a plastic cover over
the pricking, and left all the pins in it, too. I didn't use starch
at all, but used what I have done many times before -- half-and-half
Elmer's starch and water, applied with a Q-tip. It dried perfectly
clear. I took out the pins after a day or so, and the angel (stiff!)
looked lovely. Lots of luck.

Hi to all, does anyone know of a cheap skate way of starching lace on
the pillow, I worked an angel on the pillow with a plastic over the
pricking but my Monrovia starch has gone funny and as I remember it cost
rather a lot of pennies when I bought it I do not want to go to that
expense at the moment.I do have in my stash some Berol glue that says it
dries transparent and some Royal Coat decoupage glue, has anyone tried
either on lace?
