irish crochet designs is a tradition in my family that goes back to my great-grandmother on my mother's side. Catherine Gibson Nethery Turner, my great-grandmother, emigrated from County Tyrone, Ireland, in the late 1880s. She was already a master lace maker. She may have learned the tradition from one of the teachers who taught the Irish to make lace during the Great Famine. She and her husband Christopher Turner settled in New York.

Table cloths, linens of all types, clothing, curtains, anything that might be made more beautiful, or more durable, was subject to ornamentation. Edging made in fine thread in a dense texture could add years to the life of a piece of cloth, and was used extensively. Caps, booties, and all forms of baby wear were, and are, favorite items to be made in irish crochet designs. Bookmarks for the family bible and the prayer book might be made in the very finest threads to express the devotion that was an every-present driving force in the life of needlewomen. In an imperfect world, sometimes surrounded by truly awful conditions, the women continued to create items of beauty that outlive their own lives, and even generations later, can inspire us to awe at the tenacity and skill that was being expressed.

Our fore-mothers truly knew how to make the most out of what came along. A little bit of thread can carry us a long, long, way.
