Victorian Irish crochet thread work in black motifs including coils, roses, a horseshoe, and tassels. The roses are decorated with glass beads and rhinestones. It’s an unfinished work in progress, maybe never to be finished, who knows.
A closer picture of the roses, bow tie, and glass. The reflections look very much like spider’s eyes.
This was something I was doing for a pillow or shadow box, & my sister thought the glass she applied looked like glittering spider’s eyes. 🖤 I have no idea where I put this WIP.
