More treasures ....

I wrote earlier about finding old tatting when cleaning up my MIL's house. Now I have unearthed some crochet edgings and an unfinished doily.


There are altogether seven strips of the brown edging, one strip of the salmon/orange and one of the dark brown. Like the tatting shown earlier the edgings were all made with Coats cotton in size 20. As for the unfinished doily, I am not sure what thread was used but it is much thicker than the edging.

Am not sure what I can do with them.
