How to Use Square Sweet Suspensions
Home Page Link
Below Home Page Link SPACER
Fun to use, Sweet Suspensions, 2-sided frames, are ideal for making small ornaments for Christmas, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and other special events. Also, nice as gift package tie-ons, and sweet smelling sachets. Cross-Stitching, photos, stickers or children's drawings placed in the frames make delightful but inexpensive gifts for family and friends.
TO FRAME STITCHERY:


1.
Quilt batting cut to fit the inside shape gives needlework a puffy look. Place quilt batting on the inner frame.
2.
Center the uncut stitchery under an outer frame and puff it into the frame with your fingers.
3.
Press the frame with the stitchery onto the inner frame to form an impression.


4.
Carefully lift the stitchery off to keep the impression.
5.
Run a bead of tacky glue on a rim of the inner frame.
6.
Place the stitchery back on, fitting into the impression. Place this under a heavy book until dry.
7.
If outer frame is loose, lift it off and put a little glue on the raised impression and place frame into position again.
8.
When dry, cut away the excess fabric by cutting against the inner frame with a craft knife or safety razor blade.
Repeat these steps for the other side. Or, you can put potpourri on the other side.
