100 details for 100 days Day 74

Day 74
Today we have two treatments. One for braid the other for lace. Both embellishments are simple suitable for those new hands to embroidery and embellishment.

In each case the lace or braid was first attached over the seam with small stiches to hold it in place while stitching.

The scallop pattern was picked out in the lace by threading some silk ribbon through the holes. At the bottom of the scallop I used three straight stitches topped it off with seed beads. On the middle of the ribbon I added some novelty beads

In the case of the braid I wanted to echo the pattern the braid made so I added a single detached chain stitch either side worked using DMC pearl 5 thread. Down the centre of the braid I added some larger brass beads.
