I found this in storage with some linens. I was told it was from the late 1800's. I added to my collection of unique tatting. My lovely husband bought it. I wanted the history to live on..........I do not sewing hardly at all, however this bonnet inspired me. I looked at it long and hard and cut a pattern and you guessed it......I attempted my hand at making it. I believe that I shocked not only my husband, but me. The bonnet below was hand made by me, my version! I gave it to my granddaughter. My grandmother Susie Landrum is smiling down from heaven in amazement, that the love of tatting is living on to her great-great grandchild. A brief picture of Emma in it was priceless to my husband and I.
