25 Motif Challenge 3 of 25 part 2



I decided to tat a Christmas Doily... I am really not that happy with this peticular design it folds and ruffles at the corners allthough it looks a little neat (i guess) I still am not thrilled with it the corners are too full
I used size 10 thread and the 5 needle in red, green, and white

It is a lovely pattern. I have to admit I was a bit taken aback by your saying it's a Christmas doily as what you call "green" shows up as "blue" on my end...LOL! I thought it was a lovely Fourth of July Doily!!!

This doily looks very lacy and versatile. Omit the centre, I think it looks like we'll have a lovely picture frame!
