This is my new tatted doily taken from the book by Iris Niebach "Tatted Doilies"...size 20 Coats cotton....I love this pattern and will tat it again in finer thread
What a lovely doily, Joy! You did a beautiful job on it. I like how you showed it off on the nice darker background so we can see how pretty it is.
We celebrated Mother's Day here in the US today. I know you probably celebrate it another day there, if you do... but I just wanted to wish you a Happy Mother's Day! :)
very pretty! I think it would also be pretty done in colors.It looks a little Christmasy to me. The center being a snowflake, the second round being holly and the next round being Christmas trees. The last round could be different colored Christmas lights, or just filled with different colored beads to resemble them.
Hi Vicki, I must have missed your post.....sorry about that but I am pleased that you like this doily....I am in the middle of starting this doily again in finer thread will post a pic when I have it finished Hugs Joy
