{My Hand Made Filet Lace Embroidered Angels}

• Yesterday you could see a shadow of an angel, reflected in our high gloss bathroom cabinet vanity. 
• Today I want to show you more of our window treatment, that I made by hand.

• Getting a good photo of these angels is about as hard as making the curtain...
• You can see the balcony's balustrade to the right and the white vinyl fence below.

• Such a window treatment is very hard to capture on camera but at least I tried!
• Here I've hand made two angels facing each other in filet lace embroidery.

• This is the machine made net on which I did the Filet Lace Embroidery.
• There is a crocheted edging all around for being able to fasten it on the tiny brass nails, that are painted white.
• Very easy for laundering and putting it straight out from the washing machine back onto those brass nails. 
• Never do they get rust stains because of the brass.

• Even from the outside it is very hard to capture as it is way up high and behind a vinyl fence.
• So I had to zoom in, standing below on the ground.
• There is a screen in front of the window, that makes the filet lace embroidery look less clear.
• Our home will get a pressure wash and a new painting coat in May; that will also take care of the screen as they have to come off.

• This is the pattern I used from the book: Hemels Handwerkboek by Marie van den Berk-Mertens
• Above link will send you to Amazon.com

• hemels handwerkbook
• heavenly handworkbook

• This book is in Dutch but language doesn't really matter for following the patterns.

Is anyone of you also working with Filet Lace Embroidery?
