The good news it, it's a pretty easy technique if you just find the applique you like! Searching on etsy seems to be a good bet.<br />I found this:<br />http://www.etsy.com/listing/67175183/pretty-lace-applique-in-white?ref=sr_gallery_21&sref=&ga_search_query=lace+applique&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_search_submit=&ga_page=7&ga_search_type=supplies&ga_facet=supplies<br /><br />but there are tons more. Just search for "lace applique" under supplies.<br /><br />Good luck!Hannah Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14852218099792289394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-52886368161418690682012-02-09T05:45:03.582-08:002012-02-09T05:45:03.582-08:00Martha Pullen of Sew Beautiful fame often does hei...Martha Pullen of Sew Beautiful fame often does heirloom tutorials and pieces and she might have a tutorial perfect for this. We used to get her PBS show and even though I don't do much heirloom-style sewing I always watched it for the techniques.

You might be able to free-embroider your own with a satin stitch, spray adhesive and water soluble stabilizer. You cut out the pieces, attach them to the stabilizer in the shape you want with temporary spray adhesive, then satin stitch around the edges. Then you put it in water, the stabilizer and adhesive melt, and you're left with your finished piece to applique on.Melissa (Melly Sews)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18359114323724935110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-57012062135295710242012-02-09T05:21:34.608-08:002012-02-09T05:21:34.608-08:00Hi That is a beautiful dress.
