Good morning ladies, here are two newly finished pieces of crochet for my grand children. The top picture is a set of the long doily plus four round doilies for a salon. This pattern was for the long piece and I did manage to make four full round pieces to match. The second picture shows at the bottom the original pattern, again a long piece plus four smaller doilies. In the top you can see that I added a pineapple to widen the design for a dinning table. I'm happy with both of these sets!! Thank you for looking!!

These are just beautiful, you don't see much crochet in young peoples homes today. I have doilies everywhere, just love them, my sons and wife say it too much work washing and starching. Thanks for sharing these with us. I think they are stunning. Sandra.

Thank you Sandra, I DO NOT starch my doilies, just hand wash (squeeze only) then squeeze dry and I hand block them on plastic. By morning when they are dry they are very soft BUT holding the design.
Thams for your information dolly. Sandra

Dolly, your crochet work is stunning. The pineapple edging is excellent. That style has always been a favorite of mine.

Thank you, Is there a crochet machine???
Dolly- no there is not a crochet machine, at least not yet, but there are digitizers who create free standing lace and try hard to make it look like hand crochet stitches, though the work I have seen from machine stitched designs can not come even close to the work I have seen that you have created. It seems like you must stitch way faster than I can ever hope to be able to! Love the projects you show and how you can alter the patterns in a way to create what you wish from a design. Making your creations uniquely yours. Pam
