One of the treasures...

... that came out of the sewing chest was this one here...

 

  

Beautiful lace inlay for duvet covers, made with thread #30 or #40

I also have one of those already sewed into a duvet cover, but I haven't taken a picture of it yet.

But this inspired me to try and make some inlays of my own....

 

  

  

The pattern I found could be be used either as an inlay or as a shelf border, so I did both. Haven't used the inlays though.... at least not yet.
