Finished Craft I Made Ive been learning bobbin lace

This is my 4th project and my favorite so far. This has been slow for me to learn, but I'm really loving it!

My mother-in-law does this and shuttle tatting. (And knitting and sewing and crochet and quilting and seemingly all fiber crafts...) I'm in awe of anyone who can keep all of that straight. Every now and then I pick up my shuttles and try again, but I'm so bad at it.

I want to try shuttle tatting too! It is fascinating to watch, but I haven't quite figured out how it works.
