OK here goes. I do the lace first and stitch it up by hand . Put them together in the order I like and stitch again. Measure the length and width of what the lace come out to -and rule up the fabric in this case longer than 33 x 22 . about 2 inches larger. Place lace on fabric with lots of pins, measure to make sure all lace co-insides with each other etc. opposites . Then I stitch the lace on using a small zig-zag stitch-using the same thread that I used to make the lace. Stitching SLOWLY ( so that it doesn't pucker and shrink) then I make the zig-zag into satin stitch and adjust the width (same as the first step) stitch around the lace.(don't wash out the watersoluable yet) Then using templates (Using your printer) print out so many of the designs you need. You may need to reverse some of the designs to make the designs look more pleasing. On this one I started at the top and worked down. That way the stems are covered with the next design. The one in the middle is sewn last to cover up both right and left side designs. Do hope that you can understand this.I then use fray stop on the inside of the edge of the lace (sewn to the fabric)allow to dry and then use applique scissors to cut close to the lace as possible .

thank you Lillian. We do too. My late grandson calls them "mummy break you leg flowers" as Peta was climbing onto the brick wall to ick them one day and I happen to say "that's right , fall off and break the other leg" He was only 3 at the time -so "sweetpeas" are always Mummy break your leg flowers.
