    I can't tell what kind it is, but I can tell you it's not tatted lace. Hope someone can help you.

    perhaps bobbin lace, but it looks machined to me.


    I could be very wrong, but I did bobbin lace for years until my eyes realized quilting would be easier.

    It looks maybe like it's pulled thread work or bobbin lace?

    The way the motifs are connected looks like machine made lace. It's very pretty.

    At first I thought, it looks machine made to me. But on second thought I am not sure.
