Bobbin Lace Book Plate Frame


I have a beautiful, leather-bound, metallic cover stamped, boxed edition of Lord of The Rings by JRR Tolkien. I put my nice book plate inside the front cover, but it needed something to make it special. So I took a torchon bobbin lace pattern and resized it so the central rectangle precisely frames the book plate and the outer edge is 0.25" from the book cover edges. It came out well, and once I have it mounted, I'll post the complete photo.

Can't wait to see it in the book.

if you haven't seen your calling yet, it appears from the outside to be making the world a more beautiful place... what a lovely idea for a treasured volume!
