Wanted to make a doily. This one is from Yorikos site "Mygardened". Sorry about all the shadows. Taking good pictures is not something I can do.

Wow! Your projects always amaze me! You have such a gift with everything thread/yarn!
Oh my, how lovely. This I cannot do, but I can love it, when others can.
That is gorgeous. Makes me think of what I saw my Mom and others making, with crochet hooks, when I was young. Great job

You are right it is a take off on the popular pineapple pattern. I too used to do them in the "old" days with a crochet hook.
It is beautiful. Did you stitch the segments together before or after washing the stabiliser away? O my asking as i have tried both ways and found the thread changes colour after washing the stabiliser out

I stitched them together while still on the stabilizer. I never have tried it another way.
Love the old fashioned look Angie, you've done an awesome job. Love Chris
It's lovely, my mother used to make doilies like these many years ago by hand crochet. I she had known now we can do this with a machine, a good design and a patient embroiderer........Great job ! hugs)))

I used the Elissimo and the 5x7 hoop. You make 8 pieces to sew together with sewing machine later. The bobbin has to be the same color as the design and stitched on 2 sheets of WSS stabilizer.
thanks angie , i'm going to try one soon, wish me luck , thanks doris
Very nice, lovely. Also, a suggestion when taking pictures, I put my project on a white background, under a ceiling light directly above and shadows are then very few, if any. Again, lovely and very delicate...
