19th century braiding machine making ricrac
In the 1860s, rickrack (yes, it's spelled both ways), was known as waved crochet braid or waved lace braid.

After 25+ years of designing my quilt patterns (all still available from my website), I’m now back to creating textile art quilts, using embroidery & embellishments.
I’m sharing how I create these, through a weekly video, hoping to inspire other hand stitchers.
I do this while living off-grid, with my cats, in a forest in Nova Scotia.
