Last year at the OIDFA congress in Groningen, I did the course on 's Gravenmoerse lace and the teacher used something in a spray can called "Fixative" and it worked a treat. Here in South Africa I have now used Artist's fixative with the same result. It is not a heavy stiffener and does not dull the thread like some other stiffeners. A friend has also brought me a can of Fixative from Germany. The lace is sprayed while still on the pillow and then immediately dabbed with a tissue to soak up the excess. You repeat the process until you have reached the derised stiffness.
