My first large lace doily. I love the design. I don't remember where I got the design. Most likely a free one. It was done in a 4x4 hoop with one layer of heavy weight Solvy WSS. Measures about 10 inches across. I will probably become a gift. I was delighted as to how it turned out. I stitched it together before removing the stablizer. This worked well for me. The picture still has WSS in it. There was no loss of shape after rinsing out.

Well done (especially for a first attempt) it looks great, if you do give it to someone I am sure they will be thrilled.

Thank you. Glad you remember the site. I keep saying I'm going to add the site to the name when I save but I keep forgetting. Too much in a hurry.

I only remembered as I had made the doily and one day looking in Dainty Stitches there it was, then the light bulb went on, thats where I got it from lol

Thank you. I have since washed out the WSS and the center ripple has disappeared. I do hope to do at least one other one with a pineapple I got free. I saw a double pineapple but it was very expensive so I'll wait a while for that.
