HOW TO SEW LACE - STRETCH LACE
Stretch lace can be treated like stretch fabric for cutting and preparing.
Always use sharp scissors when cutting and be careful not to stretch the lace out of shape as you cut. A sharp rotary cutter can also give you nice clean edges.
Make sure you are using a stretch needle to avoid skipped stitches.
When your pattern pieces are ready, decide on a seam style to get the finish you want.
Seam styles for how to sew stretch lace:
The zigzag stitch on your machine works well but tests the tension on a scrap of fabric before you start. Start testing a zig-zag stitch with a width of 1.5 a length of 2.5 and adjust to suit your lace.
Consider a French seam if there is not too much bulk in the lace. (how to sew French seams)
Bias bound seams are good to strengthen shoulders but generally too bulky for the remainder of the garment.
Using a serger to stitch the edges is ideal.
CARE WASH & ATTENTION: Hand wash in cool water with mild detergent,do not soak or bleach, Squeeze out excess water, gentle pull wet garment into shape, do not tumble dry, line dry in shade,cool iron. Dry cleanable. Wash according to instructions on care label.

HOW TO SEW LACE - SHEER LACE
Sheer lace generally has a finer and more open pattern and will need to be lined or partly lined.
A variation on the lining: Choose to have the lining show through the lace with the shiny side or the matte side up. Alternatively, think about a contrast lining as another way to show off the lace. Imagine a bright pink peeking out from behind your white lace!
Before you start always pin and baste meticulously to avoid lace slipping and the frustration of unpicking.
HOW TO SEW LACE - FULLY LINED OPTION:
Cutting: Clever planning and cutting will make sure you get the best out of your fabric. It is a good idea to cut the lining out and then use the lining as the pattern pieces for cutting out the lace. This enables you to place the lining pieces individually on the lace to get the best out of the design.
Ready to sew: When you have your pieces ready to sew, start by stitching the lining to neaten areas like necklines. Turn the neatened necklines so the lining is on the inside of the garment. Trim closely to the stitching line.
Darts: The darts also look neater and lie better if they are stitched together using the lining and lace to fold together creating one stitch line. (Read how to sew darts)
Stitch seams: Sew the seams so that lining and lace are all sewn together. This way you to avoid seeing a lace seam on the outside of the lining. The lace and lining seam will be on the inside of the garment.
