The Free Standing Lace Butterfly Candles holders are digitzed as free standing lace which are stitched on water soluble stabilizer such as the Fibrous type of water soluble stabilizer named Vilene or Wash Away or Aqua Magic etc.
Or on the heavy Film type of Water soluble stabilizer such as Badgemaster or Ultra Solvy.

Try using 2 layers of the water soluble stabilizer hooped.
Use the same embroidery thread as the top thread and also as your bobbin thread. this means you will wind your own bobbins with the top thread.

Use a size 75/11 or 80/12 sharp point embroidery needle for stitching the lace designs.

If you can slow the speed of your machine down just a bit for stitching the FSlace designs.

You stich the panels out on the water soluble stabilizer and when finished you soak the water soluble stabilizer out with water and that leaves you with the lace candel holder.

If you need more information please ask!
