Hello, Is there a book out there on how to mount finished lace? I've mostly made stand-alone things like bookmarks, that don't need to be mounted. For some small figures (for instance Louise Colgan's hummingbird) I have taken just a few tacking stitches and mounted them on velvet, then framed them. The glass helps press the lace into the velvet and it won't slip (especially with those few stitches).
But for a longer trim, or a complex shape, what are my options? Is iron-on backing an option, or will I be booed and hissed out of the global guild ;-) ? I really don't want to spend the same amount of time sewing as I did making the lace!
