lovely things

I bought a couple big boxes of old lace and trim and stuff and I’m having fun sorting through it and washing it and ironing it and thinking of things to make.

The photo above is just some highlights ( you can click the pic for details), there are tons and tons of good things.

I know someone who makes wonderful wool bears ( and other things) who’s name begins with E.

I think the little E. monograms (love the dot) would make a perfect signature for them.

    lovely!!! I’m a lace & trim nut too, looking forward to the creations that evolve from your treasures. I was recently inspired by my stack of lace and created what I call “Lace Cakes” now on my blog.

    God bless,
    Laura
