Solvy Lace Lamp Shade




Using Solvy to make lace...same technique as post of  January 6, 2011.  This time I used it to cover a floor/table lamp...and took pictures of the solvy in the sewing machine.  I made the majority of stitches on a flat piece of solvy, a couple inches longer than what would wrap around the lamp.  Near the end, measured the overlap, and stitched it together to make a "band" to fit snugly over the lamp shade. Solvy is water soluble so once finished with the stitching, dip in warm water for a bit for "plastic" to dissolve.
