for everyone
I finished this doily last night.  It took me like 4 days to finish because I had to "frog" twice a complete round.  Watching TV and crocheting at the same time is not my best.  I can tat and watch TV without problems.    The pattern is from Decorative Crochet #7.  The threads are Altin Basak (Turkish thread) #10.  I used the same colors as in the pattern because mom's decoration is the same color's scheme.  The original pattern is made in perle #8 and measures 16 inches.  But because I used #10 the doily is much bigger, 23 inches.

Here is a photo I tried taking it from atop the table.  I'm short and I couldn't climb up on the chair or mom will kill me.    But it looks better.
