Here’s my progress so far.
You remember I ranout of thread just a few inches from finishing this round. Since it was going to be on the outside, and I wanted it done right so I could ask for it to be judged at the Fair, I started over. I think this is the first time I’ve worked a doily that starts with the outside round and finishes at the center. The next few rounds are mostly chains, so I need to really be alert when starting it. Time to get some rest.

Very pretty. The pattern looks great in this thread.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I don't normally work in dark or bold colors. This just seemed like the right pattern and thread for Spring. This Spring I'm trying to finish UFOs first.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colourway - suits this very interesting pattern :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks great!! :)
