I am feeling the pull to get back into more cross stitch myself, especially small seasonal pieces.<br /><br />You have plenty of thoughts regarding the lace -- I was going to suggest selling it on Etsy. I've used it in paper crafting, and I think people would incorporate into into junk journaling, too. And I have also seen it used on tags rather than ribbon or string. It looks especially cool on shipping tags. I will email you a photo.Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180424865669168363.post-4608007696354028362020-10-26T17:47:00.345-04:002020-10-26T17:47:00.345-04:00You're welcome!

The question I think I need to ask myself is... if I were to discover a really great idea for this stuff (at some point) would I go out and buy it or use something else, or just take a pass. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't go buy this. Except for some of the interesting colors it's just not that appealing.

They use stitcky board and cover it with fabric and stick their XS on that and then wrap a larger piece of sticky board with fabric and the lace or rick-rack. You can see it on The Real Housewives of Cross Stitch podcast.

Thank you, Vee! It seems that seam tape is a term that is used for different things. I do have some vintage seam tape that's more like a ribbon. I'm having visions of ruffling up some of it to embellish some thing(s) with. We'll see if that actually happens. This was helpful. Oddly... just seeing so much of it on Etsy kind of gives me an answer I was hoping for - that I might just free myself of it all (or most of it) and donate it.Beckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16940604077427078249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180424865669168363.post-24746616961825599662020-10-25T23:33:20.145-04:002020-10-25T23:33:20.145-04:00If it is vintage seam tape, it sells for about $20...If it is vintage seam tape, it sells for about $20 for five packages, according to Etsy.
