Torchon lace - edgingThe headside is part twisted fan headside (or Cluny edge) with half stitch diamonds underneath with cloth stitch on each side. There is a half stitch zigzag with rose ground underneath, plus spiders. There is a twisted winkie pin footside. This lace has mostly Torchon elements, although there are plaits in the headside. This was in a sewing box of my aunt, Doris Dibblee (nee Mitchell), 1896-1968. I don't know where she got it. | ![]() |
