You know I don’t display my tatting, nor do I wear it. So, I surprised myself. Here is what happened.
In the elevator, the other day, a woman I was chatting with thrust these pretty blooms into my hands. She had rescued them from an event and just gave them to me, saying, “Happy Mothers’ Day!"
I grabbed the Lucky Clover, and placed the flowers on top. Pretty!
Oh the doily and flowers are so perfect this could be on a magazine cover!
ReplyDeleteThe Universe at work! Looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteYour doily is absolutely gorgeous!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I love how the Lucky Clover makes a beautiful display with those flowers!!! :)
Hi Fox
ReplyDeleteYour doily is looking lovely, I am catching up slowly.
Your green doily look wonderful under the flowers, how nice of her to give you a bunch.
Love to Gian, how is he these days.

beautiful doily! And the Lucky Clover is fantastic under those pot!
ReplyDeleteWow!!! That is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLove the daffs on the d… tatted mat! Looks perfect. I use many of my tatted pieces around the house; seems a shame to put all that work in and keep them hidden away. You should use yours more!
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing - the perfect pot of flowers, just when you didn't know you needed them. I wonder what the universe has in mind for your summer doily.
ReplyDeleteI love that display of the tatted mat. Your summer doily is perfect, as always. I too interpreted Renulek's last post to mean there are two rounds left. How big is your doily so far?
ReplyDeleteIt is now 7 inches in diamer.
DeleteAlso--that darned Lizbeth thread! I usually say, oh, bigger sizes don't give me fits? Well, I wound three samples for an exchange. Each was 10 yards, and each of them had a knot, or a slub, or a big stretched out yucky part that you couldn't tat and would have to cut. Really? Size 10, BTW, different colors.
ReplyDeleteMy sympathies! I do know what you mean!
DeleteI had Brenda from Bre-Aly Threads do some dyeing for me with Lizbeth in 20 and 40.....she had real problems being able to wind me off 50m skeins without a join in it. She was really frustrated with it. Her colors were GORGEOUS though!!
DeleteI bought that a few years ago when you talked about it, Liyarra. It was great thread, but a bit heavy for me as I'm not good with #20. Good quality though.
DeleteLovely comments- thank you!
ReplyDeleteOoh! That is pretty... Both of the doilies and the flowers! My tatting is all over the house, but I do give it away if someone admires a piece. I love looking at all those little bits of lace!
ReplyDeleteThis doily is in my mother's favorite colours! And I like it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful...
