How do I get out creases out of fabric

I am very unhappy with some very sharp creases in my latest doily, I have washed the doily several times and have soaked it in vinegar, with no result, the fabric is from a Permin of Copenhagen kit…Continue

Profile Information
- What textiles are you interested in?
- I stitch mostly Hardanger, and spend about 4 hours a day stitching, my husband claims it is more like 5 - 6 hours a day, but what does he know? I let my husband drive most of the time, so I can stitch in the car, and I bring it every where.
- Where did you learn your textile skills?
- I learned from my maternal grand mother when I was a about 8 years old, she taught me the basics, and I am self taught from there. My mother taught me cross stitch and I have been stitching a lot of that, but I feel more relaxed stitching Hardanger. I figured out that I have been stitching for about 59 years, that is a lot of stitches.
- Is there anything else you'd like other members of Stitchin' Fingers to know about you? Please feel free to tell us a little bit about yourself by way of introduction.
- I love to stitch on different fabrics, not always the traditional Hardanger, I have also done quite a few afghans. I also love large projects and have stitched very large table cloths, I don't do those any more, they get very heavy at the end, and I have arthritis in my hands.

Lilian Kok said… - Hi Connie,
Thank you! Of course you realizeI took these photos immediately after I had reorganized and in reality the room rarely is to be seen without projects or materials strewn about!
I seem to 'think' about colors and patterns with the materials right there out on the table :-)

Salmah Salim said… Hi Connie, I hope you'll recover soon. Just think the time of recovery is a time of break from stitching ..perhaps time of creating new design. Kind regards from me, Salmah.

Terry said… Connie,
You should recover quickly. My Japanese Embroidery teacher had her cataract surgery about 2 weeks ago, She said she was stitching with no problem the very next day. Just think how much more gorgeous your pieces will be now that you can see more clearly. Best of luck with your recovery and your future surgery.

Nanna Moltke said… Hi Connie. Tusind tak for din hilsen :-) I´m writing a bit in danish here from Aarhus ;-)
Nice to get a welcome from one dane to another. Your work is very pretty and I think it´s wonderful, that you have been stitching Hardanger, for so many years, so far from home.
By the way, I´m also stitching whenever I´m going by train or a passenger in a car ;-)
Have a nice stitchingday. Nanna
