It's all about Hankies lately...

So here is the "fancy" edging I decided to do. It is another one of Mary Konior's Tatting with Visual Patterns "Bo Peep" pattern. pg. 33
Only what you see is done...I have a long way to go. I have not finished the corner yet. And of course is has not been blocked yet.
I took out all the frilly picots and am changing up the corner treatment.
I love handkerchiefs! In my mind they are from a long lost "genteel" time. Even though I am a bit young to ever see anyone use a handkerchief I am nostalgic for that time period.
I have given away every hanky I have ever made. I think this time I may keep one of these for myself.

Simple is lovely

I finished this edging and decided to leave it as is. I really like the simple quality it exudes. I have another hanky that I'll do a fancy finish for later.
I am enjoying tatting in all white again as it has been awhile. White is the essence of elegant lace to me. But I can't resist color, so I am sure I'll go back to that soon enough.
