The best way to attach the filet to the cloth the way you said it is with
buttonhole stitches done very close.
Here is the site where it explains the difference between blanket stitch and

Filet Lace Patterns by
Pauline Knight ISBN 0 7130 5702 3 there is a section on page 126 that
details finishing and mounting filet lace, this is an old book but your
local library may well have a copy.
