FAQs

Can this lace be ironed?

Yes, but use a low-heat setting and place a pressing cloth between the iron and the lace to prevent melting or snagging.

Is the lace stretchable?

No, this is a delicate decorative trim and does not have significant stretch, so it is best used for non-fitted areas.

Does the lace come in a continuous piece if I order multiple metres?

Typically, orders are provided in a single continuous length, but it is best to check specific vendor policies upon ordering.

What is the best way to attach this to non-fabric surfaces?

Use a clear, acid-free craft glue or specialized fabric adhesive for projects like scrapbooking to avoid visible residue.

Is this trim suitable for heavy-duty garments?

This trim is intended for decorative purposes and is not designed to withstand high-stress environments or heavy wear.

Troubleshooting

Trim fraying at the edges after cutting

Apply a small amount of fabric fray-stop solution or lightly heat-seal the cut ends with a fabric-safe tool if the material composition allows.

Stitching puckering the lace

Loosen the top thread tension on your sewing machine and use a slightly longer stitch length to allow the fabric to feed naturally.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, delicate appearance
  • Sophisticated floral pattern design
  • Versatile 60mm width for multiple uses
  • Flexible purchasing by the metre

Cons

  • Ivory color may not match all white fabric shades
  • Sold by the metre rather than fixed spools
  • Delicate nature requires gentle handling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For sewing applications, the trim can be attached using a standard sewing machine with a zigzag stitch or by hand using a needle and thread. Ensure you use an ivory-colored thread to maintain a clean finish. Because lace is a delicate material, it is recommended to test the tension on your sewing machine with a scrap piece of fabric first to avoid puckering. To maintain the appearance of the lace, gentle hand washing in cool water is preferred. If machine washing is necessary, place the finished item inside a mesh laundry bag and use a delicate cycle with mild detergent. Avoid high heat or bleaching agents, as these can damage the intricate floral fibers.
