New life for old doilies

I found this great piece in local thrift shop.I don't know what it was. But I can't left this thing in the shop. It was heavy cotton weaving fabric with great embroidery. The red letters is the couching ( I think) and great delicate crocheting done from swing or tatting threads . But there was few big stains on.

I put a few doilies from my collection on the stains . I put this work in my living room and play with doilies until I was happy with result and 2 days don't changed nothing. I sew doilies with run stitch, I use all founded not finished crocheted pieces and don't cut anything. I love the result and you?
