Hi gals, I finished a beautiful FSL doily design from EmbroiderybyTM. It was made in the 8x8 (200x200) hoop, over 72,000 stitches and has a finished size of 6 3/4 inches. (17x17cm)
I used 2 pieces of WSS and 5000m thread spools in Navy and White.
1. The front of the design
2. The back of the design (can't tell, but you can see the back of the hoop in the picture).
It is called the Green Doily and there are 5 sizes.
This was the biggest one. I made this yesterday (Monday) and it took about 4 hours! Love Chris

Hi Karen, yes, it's fascinating to watch it stitch out and the many layers of thread give it that extra strength. Love Chris

I'll post the washed version for you Maria. Love Chris
Maria, I've just posted the washed doily, unfortunately it's on a white bedside table. Love Chris
It's the back side though, my mistake, the front is a closer stitch. Love Chris

Looks even better rinsed out on your table.

Thank you for sharing the site, I have never seen or been to this site, I have to say from what I have just seen I will definitely be going back for another look.

Hi Sewmad, I would rate Tere(s)za as the best in the world when it comes to FSL. Love Chris

It is gorgeous Chris. I know it is going to match beautifully with all your blues in your decor. I don't know if I could sit that long and would not trust my machine and thread leaving it. For that long of stitching and thread it sure does lay nice and flat.

Hi Patti, I did other things whilst it was sewing out. I had a white thread that in the beginning wasn't behaving well, so I changed it to another and no problems at all. Every time I sew out one of her designs, I never have problems. Love Chris

Your doily is stunning, the colors a perfect match, worth all 72,000 stitches and your dedication. Hugs

Wow! Your doily is magnificent! I have some of her designs, they always turn out beautiful. My first thought was how nice this would match your quilt.
