Vintage Lace

Don't you just love old lace?  I simply can not pass it up and I try to put as much as I can with the things I sew.

I've done a few of these, this one is not mine, but Look how beautiful it is with the lace added to it

I love this idea of taking a piece and making it into a necklace. Clever idea and what a great use for your wedding dress in your closet.. 
I can't make enough of these, I love them.

And one day I will try this.. Beautiful. 
Hope everyone has been super busy and in great health.  I have a major strained back and I am in pain! I live on the heating pad and sitting at the computer for more than 10 minutes kills me.  I have been standing up to sew, and it actually is alright. Guess time will heal it. 
 I have a show this Friday for Ladies Night at Purcell Marian High School.. I am busy this week getting ready for that and hoping my back holds out! Not a good thing that I hurt it now when I have one show a month, plus the shop to keep up on, plus the kids school and sports! I'm starting to think that sleep is over rated and I will do plenty of that when I am old!
Well back to sewing and school meetings for the kids. Oh and THANK YOU for all the help with the glue, I found a cure and it is working perfectly! I love all you blog ladies and how we all help each other out! It's a never ending sea of Girlfriends all across the globe!
Have a great week!

  1. So sorry you are having so much back pain. I've been there and it isn't fun. Take care of yourself as it is a busy time coming up for us sewers and crafters.
    Yes, I love old lace. You have found lots of creative ideas to use it. The pictures make me want to go hunting for some.
