<b><i><span style="color: #4c1130;">After years of maintaining this blog, it is time to move on to other technology. I'm finding that I forget to post my new creations while posting to other media pages. Therefore, you aren't seeing you latest work.</span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #4c1130;"><br /></span></i></b>
<b><i><span style="color: #4c1130;">After much thought I've made the decision to discontinue this page.

<b><i><span style="color: #20124d;">I've made the Rose Delight centerpiece several times and never tire of it. I recently saw it made with additional flowers in the center which added to the length of the piece and really liked it. I've made a note of the change on my pattern and may just try it with my next one. This one was made with #10 thread using a #7 hook and measures 22 inches x 26 inches.</span></i></b><br />

<b><i><span style="color: #0c343d;">We were busy, but I did get some crochet in. I will post pictures over the next few weeks.</span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #0c343d;"><br /></span></i></b><b><i><span style="color: #0c343d;">I'm moving right along on a current project (HINT: it's not a round doily). Completed 30 rows thus far. It has a total of 83 rows. I'm using the 2nd ball of thread (Lizbeth) Each ball has 210 yards.</span></i></b><br />

<b><i><span style="color: #4c1130;">This was a foreign chart that I found on the web and really liked. I don't actually know the name of it, so I named it "Delightful" doily. It was made with Red Heart #20 thread in white using an 8/1.50mm hook. It measures 22 inches.</span></i></b><br />
