Another Forgotten Doily

While cleaning my cabinet, I saw a doily I made maybe several months ago that I completely forgotten to post about.  It is from this Japanese crochet book that I bought around 2 years ago.  The doily on the cover is what I made:

 

And I remember that I even blocked it.  Here's the photo while it's being blocked.  Love those pearly colored map pins!:

Now, here's the finished piece on our dining table:

This is all for now friends!  Take care always and thank you for dropping by.

Confession, Obsession

Confession time... I did so little backstitching on the Morning Lake, so there's still no picture to show you.  But I did start on Tropical Fruits.  Here's my little (so little) progress on it:

I did finish a crochet doily which was my project for my crochet lesson.  Here it is, unwashed and unblocked.  I used Canon cotton crochet thread no. 10 color SC021 here with Susan Bates crochet hook size B1.

This is the Japanese crochet book where I've gotten the pattern of the above doily:

Lately, I am obsessing over these Japanese crochet flowers that they are all I wanted to make.  Last time, I've shown you the multicolored ones and also the green/gold-green combination.  Last Friday, I bought from Dreams some yarns:

And these are the flowers I made from the yarns:

They are huge!  Please see the difference:

Have a nice week everyone!
