    I can't tell if the trim is crochet or hardanger, but it's quite beautiful.

    It looks like file crochet. A system of spaces and solids which make a pattern.
    I have done two of a world war I soldier that I copied from one found at a farm sale.

      I would love to send you a photo of the WWI soldier but when I try "email" on your site, my computer is not set up to let that happen(!)
      My email is mnutts7@yahoo.com if you would like to email me.
