Alicia's Lace is a very ornate decorative stitch. We recommend using it for clothing items- like lace and wedding dresses.
Alicia's Lace can be made as complex or kept as simple as you'd like. Take a look at the diagram above. You will see an Upright Cross Stitch, a Cross Stitch 2 over 2 and a bead in the middle of the diamond pattern. You can select any one of those stitches and add them to the center of the diamonds, or you can leave the diamond pattern open.
One of our favorite threads to use for Alicia's Lace is Petite Silk Lamé Braid. Because it is a thin thread, it gives a very delicate effect. The above stitched example is done in that thread.
