Handcrafted (93:365)

My grandmother passed away last August, at the age of 95. When the family was going through her things, they came across several small dresses that she had made, and gave a few to my daughter. Today she picked one to wear. This is a detail of the skirt near the hem. I believe that the heart trim is handmade lace, because there are imperfections that make me think it's not machine-sewn. I didn't even know she knew how to make lace. I guess she really could make everything. ♥
