From the Cleveland Museum of Art record

Budding vegetation or a tendril motif is a recurring pattern in needle lace. The frequent use of the motif, adapted in lace from different centuries and regions, suggests that it was found in a pattern book. Myrta Leonora Jones, the donor of this work, was a women’s rights activist in Cleveland in the early 20th century.
