ITH doily for Christmas.
Sorting out my father's stuff I came across 2 much used doilies. It seemed like a good idea to make something similar. Here's what I came up with. It measure 183 x 183 mm, so it only fits a 200 x 220 mm hoop or larger. It is made completely in the hoop, has 14,892 stitches and took 39 minutes to stitch at 600 st/min. I'm quite pleased with the result (and a bit proud of myself).

Here's the one that inspired me.
I chose holly which goes well with the napkins I posted the other day and the candles I made last year.

I can see why you'd be inspired to make a new one - this is lovely! Reminds me of a tattered but much loved table cloth my mother had hand embroidered! Thanks for sharing.
This very nice too
Is it possible to get this free too???
