It’s beautiful, and looks perfect in this color.

This is a lovely doily. My mom had several of these, vintage versions, of course. They were all off-white. Then, one day, one of them accidentally went in with the red color wash. Now I have one in pink, almost identical to the one here. Anyhow, I love to crochet, and come say hello at FineCraftGuild.com one day, where I host my knitting (and crochet) adventures. Good weekend, Rose

This doily is simply stunning! I love that doilies are being “rediscovered,” but being made with colors besides the standard off-white of my great-grandmother’s generation. Thanks for participating in the Creative Compulsions Link Up Party!
