Well all the lace is cut, positioned and pinned in place. All that remains is the sewing it by hand to the bobbinette (cotton tulle) which I figure will take probably most of December....unfortunately this is not a take along project.
Sleeves to the left. It did make a dent in my supply of laces but not enough for me not to be thinking of other lace projects when I get this done.
I found some cool lace bags that used lace scraps not big
enough for garment construction.
It's not that this lace obsession is anything new. My kitchen is lace free but every other room is festooned with lace everywhere and I never tire of it..... Here are just a few examples.
I love the festooned lace look but with 5 cats they would be more than festooned they would be clothed in hair. lol

It's going to be so very lovely. Wow!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeletethis will be so beautiful so much love is going into the creating of it. You certainly are a lace lover
ReplyDeleteI think the jacket is going to be stunning. I'm not so much a lace fan in decorating - we have so much dust here from the trains going by that I'd be forever washing it.
ReplyDeleteThis is looking fabulous! I especially like the little touches of colour - so perfect.
