All of my grandparents came over from Norway. This gal might very well be related!

My grandmother used to do some sort of needlework - but instead of sewing she would REMOVE the threads to make holes/patterns in the item.

Thanks for your response. However, the image I referred to (incorrectly) is the last one (third?) in the article, that is over a thousand years old. The one at the top is modern embroidery.
