8th Motif - Clover Leaf Doily

Yeah, I finally have something to post in my 25 Motif Challenge. It's a Clover Leaf Doily that is about 6-1/2" wide. I found the pattern by Linda S. Davies at www.craftown.com and thought it was beautiful.

It took me quite a bit of time to finish because I was working on some other things at the same time. As you can probably tell from my other posts, I enjoy tatting clovers. I haven't made any doilies before because I thought they would get boring and I would give up on them. However this pattern had interesting rounds and I really enjoyed making it.

 I used Lizbeth #20 thread in a medium green and ecru. If you click on the photo, you'll be able to see more detail.

Wow, that IS a pretty doily. You have done a wonderful job with it too!

Will it be a gift for someone or stay with you or be sold or . . . ?
