Grace Lace
Grace Lace
My great-grandmother, whom I was lucky enough to know until I was 16, was so proficient at tatting (lace-making), that she continued making things like this doily even though she was almost completely blind towards the end of her life. Apart from a few family photos, this doily she made is the only physical thing I have left to remember her by, and I wanted to commemorate that--and celebrate her workmanship and craft with this design.
Grace once tried to teach my mother the art of lace-making, but the venture failed because if she slowed her hands enough that mother could see what she was doing, they got tied in knots. She had one speed only; the speed that makes lace.
