Full set of mourning clothes. Also on he left metal chain purses.

This dolly is dressed in her Heirloom clothes and seated in an antique cradle.

A set of 6 very fine battenburg lace doilies.

Treadle sewing machine and other sewing implements. On the right there is a shoe hook and a couple of tatting bobbins. To the left a set of crochet hooks, sewing basket and embroidery hoops.

The machine in this picture is a pleater, used for smocking and for pleats that are sewn into clothes. I'm grateful for my "modern" one that puts the threads in at the same time. Also pictured are knitting needles, crochet hooks, shoe hooks and a tatting shuttle.
