    Default How To Attach?

    I want to make a wall hanging of 4 napkins my mom embroidered many years ago. I want to attach them to a backing and back the napkins with a different colored fabric and then attach to the backing material. I don't know how to attach the napkins. They are crocheted all around and I want to do it by hand. Someone suggested to fold tne crocheting under but then I lose the color. Any suggestions?

    Not sure I am understanding you correctly, but here's what I would do. I would create the backing as one piece first, then place the embroidered napkins on top of the backing. I would hand sew the crocheted edges to the backing (no need to turn the crocheted edges under).

    You hit the nail on the head. That is what I'm going to do. Thanks
