Site to ID vintage needlework?

I don't know if anyone here is a collector. I have a small collection of vintage crochet pieces, starting with the ones my grandmother made.

I find myself drawn to other types, too, besides crochet. If Grandma, Mom, or aunts made it, I've got some. But now I am also buying pieces. I ran across the term "Filet crochet" the other day: and realized that I had some, just never knew it as the name for a variety of crochet.

Does anyone know of a site that can be used to ID types of needlework? The info I find on Wikipedia and similar sites is more of the very high end examples, not what I can going to find at the local antique mall. I'm not doing it to sell, just promised my daughter I would provide as much info as possible with each piece.

Thanks!
