Lost & Found: A Doily



My wonderfully skilled grandmother. Crochet, embroidery, smocking, you name it. And they were merely adjuncts to her training as a seamstress. She met the height of fashion at the turn of the twentieth century. How many saved items do I have like this? Most fabulous of all, a pristine, crocheted, ten-foot long, grand dining table cloth. To a child with a dining room table.
