something old...

i wanted to share something really beautiful. these are hand crocheted necklines made by my great-great-grandmother. they have been handed down through the generations and now i have them. they are so delicate and light. i know how to crochet but not anything as intricate as this. part of me wants to use them in making a new piece of clothing, but i also feel i should save them to pass on. whatever i decide they make me feel so linked to my families creative past.

  1. so pretty! That's a tough call deciding whether to make it into something or not. I think you need to sew it onto your wedding dress.
