Booties & Doilies

I kept busy most of this week working on this pair of doilies.  My son wants them for his living room.  His furniture is green and red, so I thought these would look nice on his end tables.  :)  I used my doily pattern found in this post.  I’m pleased with how they turned out, and I used some more of my partially used balls of thread.  Told you I have a lot of ‘em! ;)  LOL

A couple nights ago I whipped up this pair of booties for my baby grandson. I used this pattern.

    1. Thanks, Debi! :) He actually asked for the doilies, which surprised me. LOL But I was very happy to make them for him. :D When I showed them to him I was quick to point out I didn't make them look too frilly/girls. LOL

  3. The doilies are great! Sometimes doilies seem a bit "frilly" but these look perfect for a guy and the colors are so bright and cheerful too.

  7. The doilies look perfect for a guy's room. It is good that your son raised a requirement for a doily. This will upgrade the doily perception that it is not always frilly thing :)
    Booties are very cute and the color is very lovely:)
