It ends in just a few hours and is currently below the price I paid. Check it out! It has a 40" bust and free US shipping (discounted international shipping). Laura
Lovely blouse Laura, I do hope somebody else gets in on the bidding for it. I believe the work on this is actually known as drawn thread work. Pretty pretty piece!
I realize it's really drawn thread work (and it says so in the description), but since it has the appearance of lace I wanted to bring up that angle, too. Laura
