Oh how I wish I had appreciated my Mother's beautiful crocheted handwork when she was still with us! She had made a tablecloth, Christmas ornaments and doilies for me. What has become of them through the years? This table runner actually belongs to my niece, Bobbi. Some of the doilies may be my Mother's or my sister's, both are gone now and how we wish we knew who made the doilies. I do not crochet, unfortunately I do not have patience for this kind of work! Bobbi has hand stitched the doilies together in a beautiful pattern. I love the bigger ones on the end and in the middle. This picture was taken during the summer, look at that green! Bobbi has made me a table runner with doilies and it is beautiful, but this one is gorgeous on my farm table. Joined These Awesome Blogs
