How about embroidering the designs on Organza, cutting them out, appliqueing
them on top of the cloth over the holes, and then cutting away the fabric
underneath? Then they will seem as tho you MEANT to put them there! (and
just more applique of a different kind!)

Subject: [HookedOnEmbroidery] Using the lace coaster and butterfly
...I have started
making a tablecloth with a circle of applique roses in the middle.
Was on the last one and carelessly got some excess fabric caught up
underneath the hoop and got it caught in the embroidered part of the
leaves..UUUUGHH!! ...I thought about placing the lace coaster design in the
centre of the
roses to introduce some lace into the design then "patching" the
holes around the outside of the design with the lace butterfly
design (this would be kind of randomly placed because of the
position of the holes) ....
Any other suggestions??
