This looks like a row of crochet or a row of buttonhole stitches has been added around the individual motifs in order to join them together. Hard to tell from the photos - even the enlarged version. Mary in Southeastern Michigan

I recognize the rings and picots of normal tatting, but each section has a wide row of stitches that I don't recognize. It this all tatted? Or has there been a row of crochet added around each section? http://cgi.ebay.com/EXQUISITE-GENUINE-HANDMADE-TATTING-lace-white-bedspread_W 0QQitemZ8246107778 Item 8246107778 if the URL doesn't work for you. Thanks. Alice in Oregon -- 2" of rain yesterday, and more coming. Wish I could send it to Texas/Oklahoma where the fires are.
