Bedfordshire lace collar

There is a nine pin headside. Then there are cloth stitch trails and tallies. The leaves in the main part of the design are made of cloth stitch rather than tallies. Joining things are plaits decorated with lots of picots. There is a cloth footside.

This piece is too big to fit in my scanner (which is how I am reproducing the lace) so I can only show part of it on the right. The entire piece is photographed below to show its shape.
