Vera Doily

Another lovely pattern designed by Grace Fearon called Vera.  I used Artiste #10 thread and a #4/2.00mm hook.  The thread color is called "porcelain".  It's 18 inches across.  I did deviate from the pattern some in that I skipped row 20 all together and on Row 21 I did a "sc" in each stitch rather than what the pattern called for.  I love the way it turned out.




Thanks for stopping by and God bless!

Oh my!

I can't believe it's been 2 1/2 months since I posted anything, then again, I can believe it.  I think I was better at regular postings when I was working full time.  I guess being retired I've just gotten LAZY!
Last year Grace Fearon published a collection of small doilies called the "Juno Collection" which I had the pleasure of testing.  They were fun and quick to work up.  I tried to use different colors for each one. They vary in size from 7 to 9 inches across.



Sorry I've been "missing in action".
Have a great day and God bless!

"Anna" doily

A doily "Anna" designed by Patricia Kristoffersen.  I used Artiste #10 in a color called "natural" and a #4/2.00mm hook.   The completed doily is 22 inches.  This is another one that I have made several times and donated out to various causes to be used in fund raising activities.





I've been unable to attend a crochet/knitting group at the local library for some time due to personal/family issues.  I've started back in the last couple weeks and so enjoy the time on Thursday afternoons visiting with the ladies as we do our needlework.

Have a blessed Thursday, and thank you so much for stopping by.  Hope you leave me a note.

I'm so far behind in posting finished items, so I'm trying to post more often until I get them all displayed.  Hope you don't get bored with me!  

A little sore this morning from the yard work yesterday, but I'm up and moving.  Not seeing the sun so much this morning; I believe it's going to be a cloudy day.  I need to be back out in the yard today, but most handle other things on the calendar.

Thanks for stopping by!

Current project update

A few more rounds completed last evening. Almost finished with 2nd ball of thread and not quite half way thru the pattern. I'm guessing it will take about 5 balls of Lizbeth thread.  I'm sure those of you that are familiar with older patterns in thread will recognize it before I finish.




It's FRIDAY and a little warmer here this morning than it has been in the last couple days although colder weather is on the way.  Enjoy your day!

Current project

Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and New Year.  It was COLD here.  I know it's not as bad as our northern neighbors, but for us in the SOUTH it was cold.

We were busy, but I did get some crochet in.  I will post pictures over the next few weeks.

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.




Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!
