Colorful Things

Hello Friends!  Hope you had a nice weekend, and that all you mothers out there were treated like royalty on Mother’s Day!

Thought I’d share my two newest creations with you.  The first is a doily that started out as a small motif.  The colorful center part was it…but then I added more rounds to turn it into a doily. I wish I would have done the initial white rows a bit differently, but what is done is done, and I’m not doing it over.  LOL

This second project is a mandala that I just kind of threw together yesterday. No pattern…just played around with some cotton yarn. I added a loop on it for hanging.

  2. Love the doily Rita - it's very pretty, and I like the variegated colors. The mandela is so bright and cheery - it will look great hanging on a cabinet door. :)

  6. I agree, Sarah. :) Was just telling my husband that they're basically a yarn doily. :D
