I got a parcel in the mail the other day that was packed full of lengths of old ribbon and lace, and crocheted pieces. Even two very delicate cross-stitched sleeves removed from an old dress. (Thank you again, Linda.) After staring at the pieces for a while, I decided to make some things that would truly show some of the lacy patterns off. I love the delicate look of them against a plain background of linen, where they are the main feature and finally having their glory day, after all these years.
Pictured above are some purses and bags I made for my etsy shop update today. And a pair of tiny brooches like lace cameos.
