White Lace

I got into my sewing notions a few weeks ago and I didn't realize how much lace I had.  I love lace and obviously I never have thrown a scrap away!

This piece was embroidered.  I am not sure if it is by hand but, it is quite old.  I got it at a flea market.

  Here is a vintage crocheted lace collar.

Here is a collar embellished with battenburg lace.

Lace collars were all the rage on floral print dresses in the 80's.  Here I have a collar I purchased then and it never was used.  

 Where as the collar above looks very dated to the 80's, this collar looks timeless.  Very romantic and Victorian.   I might have to find a project to use it on.  Thanks for having fun peeking at my lace collection.   
I will join Kathleen for White Wednesday at her blog Faded Charm.
Go over and visit her and view some very romantic and lovely white decorating!
