Yesterday I just could not put the block down! I hand sewed all the lace in place and then couldn't stop adding little touches! I made the banner into a little table with lace cloth and then had the angel hold a swag. I added beads and pearls, gold bead cap "flowers" with pearl centers, a shell heart, and my signature honeybee. That little bee is my favorite one out there it's so pretty without too much detail or being too cutesie.I added some of my favorite vintage wedding lace I have, and also some more tatting. The ecru hen & chicks tatting that is in the center I tatted in size 80 thread, and the lower right corner tatting is vintage that looks like it was well loved, but I thought it looked nice with the antique feel of the block also I'll be embellishing it further.
