Lace love...


I can't help it...
I do love it so!
Lace is just gorgeous to me and
I love using it in most everything I create!

Well, my hub's cousin Roberta ran across a bag
that used to be her brother's and his wife's
as they used to create
the most beautiful Christening gowns
and she just knew I would love it...

o...my...goodness ~
I just about fell in the floor
when she gave it to me this past weekend!!!!

Just take a look:













I just had to share it all with you...because you all
SO "get" me and know what a precious
gift this was!!!!


Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday dear friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

Dawn,
I thought I commented on this but probably I was too flabergasted to say anything. OMGoodness. Your friend blessed you big time. What a wonderful & amazing pile of goodness. Couldn't go to a better person. You will make so many awesome things with this. You should have shown her your work:)
