Well, it's complete except for proper blocking. I was so excited to finish this, that I performed a quick steam job and placed it on the scanner. I didn't even take time to place it neatly on the scanner bed. I just couldn't help myself!
I love everything about this doily... the pattern, the thread, the size. Now I'll have to complete the second one where I pay attention to the color changes. I have a few other projects I need to finish first, though.
Pattern: Primrose Path from A Pattern Book of Tatting by Mary Konior
Thread: Lizbeth, size 20, color #117 and #651
Finished size: 8"
This is just gorgeous and I love the colour. You have every right to be proud of this piece.
