Commuter lace continued

So here is more lace that my daughter and I have been working on.
This pink one is number 7 out of the 111 edgings in the book
# 7 lace I am making
This cream one is the one my daughter is making and it is number 8 in the book.

yards and yards of lace
Both of the above laces are size 10 thread; the one before is vintage size 3o thread and it is pattern number 107 in the book.
#107 lace I am making size 30 thread
As for the yellow lace I was making, it is done and there is a little over seven yards, as stated before. But to show what seven yards of this wide lace looks like, I wrapped up my oldest daughter in it; she is your typical 10-year old lace mummy (like there is such a thing). This is also the same daughter who made the cream lace above.

  2. Those are all so pretty. I love the design in the goldish one..third picture..and the cream one is so pretty!! Tell daughter she did a great job!! My girls love to crochet, but are better at knitting right now..and embroidering..probably since that is what I do more myself.
    Hey..new giveaway on my blog if you are interested! It ends on Weds. night!!

  3. Your "mummy" is very talented. When I was her age, I was just starting to handle the hook. Ive already planned making some lace like you're just doing. Maybe something simpler and quick to do. Great idea, indeed!
