Have Doilies, Table Runners. Hand Towels

I have some Doilles and Table Runners that my mom has Crotched over the years, many sizes and colors. ALso table runners and hand towels that hang on the stove. All occassions. If you are interested in any of these hand made items, give me a shout. Mom does it as a hobby, so there are quite a few to choose from. I can post pictures if need be..

I would love to have some of these beautiful items and will be gld to send some thread in return so that she can continue to make more wonderful things for a long time to come. What kind of thread does she prefer? Will also be glad to pay postage.

I think it is important to preserve things like this as it is becoming a lost art. I have a couple framed in my bedroom and think they are very romantic.

Thanks for considering me.

I have photoed a few, but there are more in different shapes and sizes, so it will take longer to go into the attic and get those down, but the first round one is 12- 14 inches across when pressed and starched, the hanky is a 12 inch square both sides, These are just a few that I can show now. Unfortunately mom is unable to do this type stiching any longer, because of her eye sight. She still has 10-15 ball of this type thread for doiles that she herself cannot use, but with the ones that are already done, we have plenty. If you would like some and would pay S/H and a small donation, she can then get more yarn to make baby outfits, which she still is able to make. Look for more photos and contact me if you are interested.
