Tatting - A Three-Dimensional Daisy from 1929

This is from a recent eBay purchase and it will take a while for me to work up to it (it's a little out of my league).

  3. after a pep talk from Sharon and another look at the pattern, I am a little less intimidated. I have avoided "onion ring" tatting patterns before as my tension is not as even as it could be, but I have some vintage yellow Coats & Clarks that might look good in this.
