Mary,
I love it. Guess it was done on water soluible? Great idea.

Hi, Susan

Yes, it was done with OESD's Aqua Mesh Wash-away, which I just LOVE!. The bottom piece did give me some trouble. It was too big for the oval hoop, so I used the Mega hoop, and the first try had the satin stitch pulled away from the lace part. So back to the drawing board...I ended up using a double layer of the Aqua Mesh, using the Mega hoop clips (I rarely use them), and taped the bottom of the 2 parts of the hoop with masking tape. There's also an Aqua Mesh Plus which is water soluble but sticky backed. Used it for the first time today in a class called Latte Quilt.

I'm glad you like it!

That is beautiful Mary! I love looking at all these pictures. Inspiring! :)

This looks kinda like the baskets I just saw in a book called "fun, fast and easy thread-a-bowls". I didn't buy the book, only because I needed some ideas on what to use them for. Now I have some ideas! They made a sandwich of threads and material scaps between water solubile backing,did rows of stitches to hold it together and molded it over a bowl.I don't have an embroidery machine so I can't make anything as beautiful as yours.
