My twin daughters had their 21st birthday on Saturday. My oldest daughter was doing a little decorating for it and needed a cream tablecloth. I didn't have any, so I thought. Then I remembered this one.
It was one I had crocheted for my mom back in the 70's.
It was probably done from instructions written in German and may have been knitted in Switzerland or Germany when I lived there.
Isn't this a nice job of decorating? |
I gave it to my mom and after she had passed away I received it back. It is rectangular and much smaller than my table, so I had never used it.
But Naomi did a quick pressing on it and made it work nicely. How many hours this must have taken to make. And something I made is now a vintage item. Maybe I'm vintage.
Happy Birthday Girls.

Happy birthday to both of your girls. I have a hand crocheted tablecloth and a handknitted bedspread - both made by my grandmother between 1976 and 1983. I cherish them both.
ReplyDeleteOh, your girls are adorable. I love the hand croceheted table cloth. Gorgeous.
