BFC-Creations Machine Embroidery Lace Bowl & Doily

You will find this set very versatile. It makes a very elegant lace bowl without the flowers, or you can add the dogwood flowers and leaves included. You can also add other three dimensional flowers. The smallest size of the Lace Sculpture - Orchid is a perfect size. The Fun Flowers set would also be appropriate. You can stitch a small design of your own in the oval center of the bowl side and doily - perhaps a flower, butterfly or initial. In addition to the small dogwood for the bowl, you will receive a larger sculpture size dogwood. I stitched mine and then attached it to a twig to give a realistic appearance. This would look pretty sitting on the doily as shown, or laid on the doily of the plain bowl and doily for decoration. If using the bowl as a centerpiece, several sculptured dogwoods would look nice scattered on the table. I used metallic thread to stitch the centers. You could also add beads or crystals to the centers of the flowers to add more sparkle. My inspiration for this bowl came from remembering the doilies I had made many years ago that had three dimensional flowers. There are now two companion sets: Lace Sculpture - Dogwood and Watercolor Dogwood.
