Lace Panel Bowl

December 2005.

This is a lace panel bowl, a freebie from Sadia Sews. Each wedge-shaped panel took my machine 1 hour to stitch out, but then I was being cautious and stitching at a slower speed.

At this time, I had a VERY meager supply of thread to use, virtually none of the standard trilobal polyester or rayon threads that I now know about. Therefore, I used what I had ... matte cotton thread. Even with this very modest thread, the bowl turned out wonderfully. Sadia is such an exquisite digitizer .... her designs are lovely.

I gave this bowl to my sister-in-law for Christmas .... she was absolutely overwhelmed by it. Like me, she had never seen anything like this before and was very, very impressed that I created it. I didn't let her in on the secret that I just threw some stabilizer and thread at my embroidery machine, sat back and watched the bowl components stitch out! I saw no need to diminish her admiration. :-)

This design can be found at Sadia Sews.

Unfortunately, I have decided to discontinue the guestbook feature. The one that Freeservers provides has a horrid bug in it that allows spammers to automatically post entries. These spammers can clog up a guestbook in a matter of seconds. Therefore, instead of posting a guestbook entry, I would love to hear from you via an email ... the link is below! Thanks for looking at my pages. :-)
