Hi Clay!
I believe you come across them most often in Honiton lace; the more
common name for them being Blossom fillings. At the point where 2 braids
cross, you work 4 picots before continuing with the braids. It makes a
frilly little crossing, and when an area is full of them, it is so sweet!
In the Book of Bobbin Lace Stitches by Bridget Cook and Geraldine
Stott, there is an adorable variation called the Torchon Apple Blossom
stitch, so I imagine that's why I always call the blossom filling an
Apple blossom filling :)
Hope all is going well with your visit to your DD!
Take care,
Debbie
