Once again Marlene has created a quick-to-stitch, in-the-hoop project for you!
These earrings are a little different than the other as they are NOT Free Standing Lace.
Marlene uses a lightweight vinyl for stability in this project.
Supplies
- Clear water soluble stabilizer
- Very thin vinyl found in fabric stores (used for cover chairs, book cover etc.)
- Earring hooks and rings
- 6mm beads
Hoop 2 layers of clear water soluble stabilizer, stitch first color then cover with clear vinyl and stitch the rest.
Carefully tear off the vinyl.
Lightly spray or dampen the back of the design to remove the stabilizer. There is no need to soak the earring.
Stick a pin through the back of the holes and put the earring together as instructed in my Heart Earrings. (You can see those instructions by clicking here. )
The beads or pearls are attached by threading matching thread through the tiny holes.

These are so cute and also different! I look forward to doing them.
Love these earrings they are fantastic like the rest.
This is such a great idea…will have to make some set for “just because” gifts. I would like to know, will this work for FSL things too? Thank you!
So cute! Where do I get the designs?

Awesome!!!!
Love your idea. Thanks for sharing.
I used vinyl to help keep the hoop earings in a nice round shape with a slight support. You can useart foam (puff foam) from the craft store.
I didn’t suggest it because I wanted to be sure there wasn’t any tiny pieces peaking out of the design and didn’t want to turn them into armor.
Will they work without the vinyl?
Does anyone know if this will work without the vinyl?
