Lace Overpiece




Assignment was to take already made lace, and either make something that pertained to an heirloom or do whatever we wanted with the lace...only requirement is that it had to be existing lace, not lace we made.

Took bias lace remnants that my Mom had used on (inside) hems of some of our dresses she made for us as kids...that secret little touch of lace, and specialness of the dresses she made at the time. I hand stitched the lace strips to a ribbon, and made a simple skirt out of canvas...made it so only a section has lace, not all the way around. No lace was hurt during this experiment!
