Hello Crochet Friends,
Today I'd like to share a simple pattern for a lace edging or trim, which can be used for many different projects.
For example, it can be sewed onto pillow cases, flat sheets, towels, etc. It can be used to decorate the shelves of a shabby chic hutch or it can be made into a bookmark. There are so many possibilities!
I really like the romantic shabby chic look of this edging.
The tiny daisies in the photos grow on my front lawn. It's so nice to see the signs of spring everywhere around.
