These are instructions on how to embroider the Cutwork Lace Butterfly Corner design. The design is available in 2 sizes for the large (5" x 7") and mega (6" x 10") hoops.

You will need fabric, water soluble mesh and embroidery threads.

Step Two: Cover the outline with a piece of fabric. Pin the fabric to the mesh outside the embroidery area. Start the machine. It will embroider the outlines of the lace and stop.

Step Three: Take the hoop from the machine. With a pair of sharp scissors cut away the fabric in the areas shown on the picture.
