Chemical lace is created by embroidering designs with machines on a
background fabric which is chemically removed, leaving the "lacy" holes
between the embroidery and giving the effect of "lace". This technique
is over 100 years old. It is commonly found in what today is called "wedding
lace".
<---Notice how the thick areas look like satin stitch embroidery. |
