Lace Edging...

This is a gorgeous edging that was once on a blouse or something similar and was removed.  It was in Grandma's pile of ric-rac and trims, earmarked for repurposing elsewhere.  I think it is pretty enough that I wanted to share it here...


 
It's such a pretty combination of elements to make a deep trim or collar, very nice effect...I'm sure it looked lovely on the item it graced...

    1. I suppose that is part of why I am blogging these things...I love Grandma's tatting, and it's a place to share her work...a book written one page at a time and available to whomever is interested!

    1. I don't remember Grandma really ever being without her shuttle(s)...she was always working on something, and she was fast. I can't imaging being able to turn out the amount nor quality of work she could...but maybe after 40+ years of tatting I'll come closer :-)
