2 Trish K Doilies

[dixieredhead]

Just had time to post these pics. The 1st one is from doilies with a twist. #6

 

the 2nd pic is from the best of patricia kristoffersen #2.

 

the 3rd pic is some snowflakes I completed this week. They worked up great, but the stiffening was hectic.

:flakeThose are beautiful doilies and your snowflakes are great. What are you using to stiffen them?

[crochetrae]

Nice doilies, but it's the SNOWFLAKES that blew me away. Beautiful.

Very pretty. Love the snowflakes! I have to say I wish all snow just came that way.

[Kathleen]

OMG that is gorgeous!

[dixieredhead]

Thank you All!!

 

i read somewhere to use a mixture of equal portions of elmers glue and water. Found out to use PLASTIC WRAP over whatever you pin them down to though, the hard way. Snowflakes are really hard to block right. or at least to me they were. I'm not used to all that intricate pinning. I'd make more, if someone else would block them

Awesome job! Everything is so beautiful. But those snowflakes are just incredible.

WOW, those are all so gorgeous! You do fantastic work!! Trish K doilies are beautiful but I find them a little beyond my expertise so far

Oh wow!!!!!!! I love everything!!!!

[sissymamma]

Absolutely gorgeous work, Stacey! them all!

 

I must try that glue & water technique with snowflakes. They are very tedious & finnicky things to block, aren't they?

[Julie]

Gorgeous, great job!!

 

I use wax paper to lay my snowflakes out on before I pin them. And I'm with you, blocking them is finicky work. I try not to block more than three at a time, in other words doing them as I go. It's my least favorite part of making snowflakes though the results are more than worth it.

[jaclim]

Beautiful, Stacey! I love everything! You've inspired me to try making some snowflakes..... :-)))))))

[Kimberly]

Wow! Those doilies are awesome!! And the snowflakes are great! I believe that I am using the same book on my current round of Snowflakes for my Christmas cards....finished the first one so far

SusannahK - I sent you a PM with some sites and information on snowflakes! Anyone else looking for information, please send me a PM.

Absolutely fabulous work on those doilies AND those cute snowflakes!!

[Katandia]

Love the patterns you used!

[CrochetKitty]

Wow! Those snowflakes are stunning!

[sunnywolfgar]

I love everything you made you did wonderful on all 3... But I keep really looking and studying the 1st one its an eye catcher! Wow!

My question is tho is there bullion stitches in there going around looks like 8th or 9th row? Whatever it is thats very striking! Love the look!

Is that your made up pattern or a pattern you came across?

Now that you got those done whats on your next project?

After I finished Dots baby knee high booties I plan to start a bunch of doiles I have in mind--wim==work in mind....
