Crochet Sighting in Unexpected Place

Last Saturday, September 10th, I went to an annual church convention. It was held in New Brunswick, NJ, and about 12 churches from all over the state participated. I've been there before. In fact, I've sat in the same room many times. But I hadn't paid attention to the beautiful filet crochet piece on the wall. It was done and donated to the church in 1940, as indicated on the plaque.
The pastor was very gracious (and I think even a little proud that I would ask) and allowed me to photograph it. Unfortunately, I'm a terrible photographer, the piece is framed and behind glass, and the beautiful sunny day didn't help. The window across the room flooded the piece with light, which made it impossible to photograph.
Since I know I'll be back in that church for an evening meeting sometime later this year, I'll try to remember to bring my camera and try to photograph it at night.



I don't know how large it is, but I figure about 3 ft across and almost square.
