    Hi,

    Great,never seen or heard a work where the lace is coiled to make a Flower.How do you tie the lace done so that the look is not lost and stays in place?

    hi jayashree,
    see the picture..just make a small sttich pulling the needle thru fabric passing thru lower curve of the lace...for the first 2 or 3 stitches u feel difficulty in making the stitches...then its easy..just make a small stitch for every edge of the curve...it stays in place....lace colour n thread colur shud be same..
