Hello All! My recent efforts with edgings are now posted to Flickr. I am Well
Aware there are plenty of errors! That said, I had fun making them,
particularly the Tregidgo piece on the right because I love the variegated
Oliver Twist ground, the fuschia fans & the "wave" that travels thru.
I am making an edging for a girls dress and I have a couple of questions.
How do you work out how much length to do to fit and also have a bit of
ruffle as well. Also how do you create a nicely joined finish of the two
ends of the lace once it is attached to the dress. Most of it is point

If flat, your lace should be the same as edging, including seam
Hello Ann,
I realise that you've already started your lace but here's a idea for
another time.
One way to get a ruffled edging is to use a circular pricking and keep going
around until you have the desired 'straight' measurement along the foot
side. This gives a nice effect without too much
I (for one) love this idea! There is a pattern in The Torchon Workbook I
always wanted to try, just because it is a clever way to the ruffle effect.
I'm disappointed I haven't had need of a ruffle :(

I have two ideas for the finished seam.
The easiest would have a narrow seam. Stitch the two pieces of lace at the
seam line. On the seam allowances, stitch across 2-3 times with a
narrow-medium zigzag stitch to anchor all the threads together. Trim at about
1/4 inch. Fold in half of the
Fray check does wash out, and really isn't a glue in it's truest form. I have
used it for years with clients, and often have to re-fray check for garments
for our family. It does tend to put a faint yelliowicast, though most would
consider it negligible.
For something to stay, as in glue
Hi, I have used fray check for 18 years and have never found it washed out.
Perhaps you wash garments more than I would wash lace mats and such.

As someone who has used the Het Lassen method of joining on a number of
projects (and am very satisfied with the results), I think it's
important to add my voice to Alice's comments regarding the joining of
lace for a garment for a child. I agree completely with what she has said!!

My dear friends,
A very kind friend telephoned me from Spain, and amongst our chat said have
you seen Arachne messages lately, as you should.
I have been away two weeks, prior to Christmas and for 3 - 4 weeks this
year, having more Hyperbaric oxygen and mouth surgery again, though
