That's fine for tatting or crochet where you attach the lace as it's
made but if you are attaching BL or any other pre-made lace to the edge
of a hankie you should always make the fabric fit the lace and not try
to make the lace fit the fabric. ie attach lace to oversize fabric and
then make some sort of hem.
If you have an edging with corners what are the chances that a
readymade square of fabric will be exactly the right size without
easing/stretching the lace?
