Embroidered Dresser Scarf, Tatted Edging...

Here is another pretty thing made by my Grandmother.  This is a beautifully embroidered dresser scarf with a tatted edging...

 

Here, you can see most of one end of the scarf...a beautiful embroidered basket and a wide tatted edging...

 

More detail of the edging can be seen below...

 

...and here, detail of the embroidery...

 

The border is three rows of rings wide...very simple, but very effective and pretty.  I really love it on this beautiful embroidered piece, though I feel it would also be perfect on it's own...

 

I love how simple things are often the most elegant.  I think it is an enduring style, modern and classic at the same time.

 

Tomorrow, I will show you more of what I have been working on with the NB Lace Mat and other things...I wanted to share more of Grandma's work and was not able to find the time to get photos of my own work befor dark anyway...and mine can wait, Grandma's has been waiting longer to be shared...
