Scored a fabulous Ebay buy recently. A box of the most divine Vintage Lace. I was like a kid at Christmas when it arrived! Some are just fragments, others have meterage. I am in heaven....
oooh I dont blame you, they are gorgeous! I'm like that with a tin of antique bits and bobs I found at a market ages ago. Lots of different antique handles etc, still enjoy going through it!
Born and lived in Melbourne all my life, except for the 2 years I spent in England and Europe in my 20's. Studied Art Education at Melb Uni and have spent more than 20 years at it. Adore Vintage Fabrics, especially Barkcloth Florals from the '40/'50's but that doesn't stop me from gathering beautiful examples of anything else either!

What a wonderful find you made at Ebay, lucky you. The laces are so delicate and amazing pieces of art!
Did you get all of these in one bid? Maybe I should check out Ebay, have no experience with that at all.
Have a fine week!
