I Inspire Me Challenge

I Inspire Me (see link on my sidebar) has a textile inspiration this week. The design team has some gorgous work up there!
Here is my inspiration: It s a dish towel and a PILE of lace that was onced used for EVERY SINGLE window treatment in this house when we bought it. I keep it thinking it will make a fabulous bride Halloween costume once I learn to sew(its on the list) At this rate, I should be able to make Summer's actual wedding dress from it. Anyway, I weaved the paper strips to mimic the dishtowels weave and actually chopped off some of the lace for the layout itself.

Thanks for peeking:)
