Very pretty. So many picots too. These could use a re-blocking to straighten it all out.

Yes. but, there are no imperfections or loose stitching or anything, perfect condition other than the need for re-block.

I know that is why I just couldn't resist bidding. I am still fairly new to tatting but it is even more addicting than crochet. Too bad it has fallen out of fashion.

Those who appreciate are still out there-we're just busy starching & blocking what we already have!! Tatting does seem to be making a bit of a comeback finally. These 2 beauties are older than you think-I have original patterns for both of these and the book is from 1947. What's next on the comeback rail? Maybe hairpin lace.....
