In honor of Labor Day, a woman labors to make lace. I believe this is what you call bobbin lace, because of all those bobbins of thread she’s keeping track of. You can make white lace with multiple bobbins, but in this case the colors subtly shift as they move out from the center. Amazing work.

She had a variety of interesting samples on offer, but I didn’t buy anything as I’m not really a lace sort of woman.

This was at a ploughing match over the weekend. There are a few more events in the area in September, but this is probably the last we’ll go to this year. Sad.

I am not ready for the cold yet.
