ageless

ya know, if i can do this when i'm in my nineties, i can't wait to get there. it's amazing to me how much this old italian tatter looks like my own sicilian tatting great-grandmother:


...seen here with my mom, who is pictured smugly flaunting physical attributes she never gave to me (although i occasionally dance around the apartment in that veil.)

i have posted entries about my great grandmother's tatting a couple of times. maybe more. (please remind me to get a better picture of that pillowcase when we are fully moved into the new place.)

UPDATE: having showcased my sicilian side, here's what's possibly zipping around in my slovak DNA. thank you, michelle. your knitting blog has always been one of the best.
