The last two: (I don't think the one on top is Romanian lace (as one mentioned, cord), but for sure is a type of needle lace. The bottom one, part is crochet and the stitches near the cloth could be Armenian lace called Oya or Bebilla.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37896709.post-56433707909117419212008-06-10T08:52:00.000-04:002008-06-10T08:52:00.000-04:00Hi, Margaret!The THIRD ONE DOWN - oh, golly.

The 3rd one is darned netted filet according to the same book, popular in late Victorian and Edwardian times particularly. This one looks hand done, especially the needlewoven parts. They are all lovely, crochet lace gets such a bad rep but I think it's quite lovely. <BR/>Do you use them, or are they stored? The Lace Guild here recommends the "oven roasting" type bags which are inert and can be then placed in an acid free box with a couple of air holes. I suggest you take them out on special occasions, it's a shame to hide them away all the time, and enjoy them. I'd record anything you find out and keep it with them for future generations.<BR/>Hooroo, Christine.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16363036334664983388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37896709.post-22948822092494875802007-08-16T23:52:00.000-04:002007-08-16T23:52:00.000-04:00Oh, Margaret, what heirloom treasures you have.

I agree with Judith about the techniques of each, though I think the very bottom one is a combination of needle-lace & crochet. The edge is definately crochet. I have not seen designs like the bottom two before. Thank you so much for sharing.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15313502220068651587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37896709.post-21044830609640005012007-08-15T22:44:00.000-04:002007-08-15T22:44:00.000-04:00Hi Margaret!

We are really concerned that the volunteer embroiderers feel how much we appreciate their time and skill. I hope we'll see you again, when it's done and we can all stand back in awe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37896709.post-75820095507318453662007-08-15T20:00:00.000-04:002007-08-15T20:00:00.000-04:00HI...the top two are crochet, the next is filet, a...HI...the top two are crochet, the next is filet, and the bottom ones are needle lace (least sure about this one) JudithJudithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08388458437824415974noreply@blogger.com
