I had lunch with my 90 year old mother today and afterwards she showed me a scarf that she was crocheting. That brought to her mind a crocheting project she did when she was about 15 years of age, a basket which she then sewed onto a pillowcase and added the blue florets. Here I caught a quick snap of her straightening it out on her bedspread. She made four of those and after they were worn, she cut out and saved the corner! These hands have touched many projects and lives in the intervening years!

Handwork
Bobbin lace is a lace textile made by braiding and twisting lengths of thread, which are wound on bobbins to manage them. As the work progresses, the weaving is held in place with pins set in a lace pillow, the placement of the pins usually determined by a pattern or pricking pinned on the pillow.
Bobbin lace is also known as pillow lace and bone lace, because early bobbins were made of bone[1] or ivory.
Bobbin lace is one of the two major categories of hand-made laces, the other being needlelace, derived from earlier cutwork and reticella.[2]
