My grandma tatted and I have a few of her pieces. <br /><br />How wonderful that they are keeping the traditions and skills alive by teaching the children to make lace.

I asked "How much?" as I pointed to a piece of lace and she quickly told me that nothing was for sale. All belong to the owners whose name was on the tag. Many years ago, I bought some lace in Belgium.Schnitzel and the Trouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074542460030763545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294756097506819118.post-82785115705359192982010-06-05T11:26:38.984-07:002010-06-05T11:26:38.984-07:00I just poured myself the last of the morning's...I just poured myself the last of the morning's coffee, iced it and added some half and half and visited your blog. What a treat! Did you purchase any lace? I think one would have to be very patient and very coordinated to produce that exquisite lace.
