Aunt Florence Skarpness Spaanem's Dolies

This is a photo album of some of the doilies I have that were made by my very talented aunt, Florence Skarpness Spaanem who is a sister to my mother.  Florence has made thousands of doilies over the years and she has made many afghans .  It is an honor to have them.  Florence will be 98 years old on March 19th and is the matriarch of our family.  She is 100 percent Norwegian ancestry and is very proud of her Norwegian heritage.  The above picture is of the farm of Florence's grandparents, Ole and Oline Skarpness and I have it posed with one of Florence's doilies.
