Thank you - it was an easy project ... just took some time because I didn't want to poke thru the WSS ... so, it takes sharp scissors! 4U*

Thanks, Shirlene! Yes, I did the wing needle work - that was easy - I just had to go slow to make sure it was straight. It wasn't a hard project - just very time consuming. 4U* Hugs, Laura

18558It looks good for first time. I haven't gotten up the nerve to try cutwork yet. Is linen the only fabric that should be used for cutwork? I hope you finish the set it will be a nice gift.

Thank you! Believe me it took me some nerve to try it - but, I love the look and now I am sold. This is actually on cotton ... you just starch and iron it a couple of times before you begin. On this, I used tear-away stabilizer on the back and wss on the top. You stitch the first stitching....take out of the machine but keep in the hoop - cut away the back stabilizer and fabric for only the holes - not cutting the wws on the top ... then stitch the last two steps. I also did the hem in a decorative stitch.
