Flowering pineapples doily

I've had this doily on my "want to do list" for some time.  It is so pretty to me.  Finished size 20 inches.  Used Red Heart fine crochet thread #20 - 1 ball (400 yds) - #11/1.10mm hook.  The pattern comes from the magazine Moje Robotki, December 2009 issue.

A new runner complete

Well, I talked about making a runner as my next project in October of last year.  I did get side tracked and made several doilies since this.  The runner is now complete, but it wasn't the one I was thinking about in October.  That one is still on my "to do" list.  This runner measures approximately 56 inches x 13 inches.  Made with #10 thread.  Here are some pictures of it in its new home.

Gardenhouse Lilies

A relative simple little thing called Gardenhouse Lilies.  I used up some vintage thread I had in a larger size to make this one.  I believe this is the last of this thread in yellow that I have.  The doily is being used to display a fresh canned jar of yellow summer squash pickles.
