Heritage Tatting at Colorado State Fair...

We went to the Colorado State Fair tonight to see how my lovely older daughter's entries did, and I will share that later...what I want to share with you this evening is an entry I spied in the Heritage class.  I think you will love seeing this one...



 
Two frames of tatting samples above, and the ribbon granted to the entry.  Below, a closer photo of a couple of the bits.  It was all behind glass, so there is some reflection from that...but still so fun to see and share with all of you...


 
Below, a readable close up of the story about these pieces (if you right click on the image and open it in a new window or tab you can enlarge it).  What a wonderful thing it is. 


Rama Wiley is a kind person to share these samples from her Mother, Mollie Graham, with those of us who view it at the state fair...and as it is on public display, I hope that my taking photos and sharing it is ok as I make no claims that the work is mine, simply wish to share something special with the tatting community. It is worth seeing and sharing!
