antique tatting

This is tatting I have collected over the years when I have purchased antique thread at thrift stores sometimes little bits of lace are tucked inside the balls. I assume someone meant to go back and finish the ball of thread and never did so I got it instead.

No plans at the moment. Sometimes I add to them ( tatting) if I happen to have the same antique thread some times I will add crochet to them to in a contrasting thread. I have used some in the past on hankies and dolls cloths and other little baby items. I just thought they would be fun to show since I am on a tatting kick at the moment. real small pieces like on the floss cards I am thinking of adding to a crazy quilt if I ever get crazy enough to make one.

These are so beautiful, and the thought that someone worked so hard on them, and then did not get to use them is a bit sad. Glad YOU picked them up.....you will find projects to show them off so well!!

This is a wonderful way to display them. Little treasures.
