Forget Me Not Doily

I just finished my forget me not doily.  It was to have 2 rows of flowers.  But I miss counted and did the first row of flowers wrong. They are to have six petals not five. Grrrrr. That's what I get for not reading the pattern.  It still looks pretty. I am not going to throw it away. I will use it somewhere.

Pot Holders

I decided to make my son on law some potholders. He is always taking my daughters outside when he grills. Then she doesn't have hers in the kitchen. Of course he takes the double mitt one, that is the one she uses alot.
Also in Liz ' s sew along it is kitchen. Perfect. I get to finish both.
I really wanted beer fabric. Bit I couldn't find any at Joann's. I did find this wine one

Crochet Along Finished

I am finally finished with this crochet along. Can you see me doing my happy dance. :). I just pressed it alittle cause I want to use it on my coffee table in the living room . This turned out bigger than I thought using size 10 thread and 7 hook.
If I decide to use it on my round kitchen table I will block it . Right now it's 32 inches.
Now back to my table cloth squares and I am going to get back to my sewing machine as well.

Crochet Along Last Row

I am finally on the last row of this crochet along. Oh boy is this going to take a long time. Making these points is the last row. This is going to take a long time as I don't crochet fast.
See the one set of point on top. I have 15 more to do.
Hugs. Susan

Update on Crochet Along

Here I am on row 28.  Hopefully I will finish this week.

Crochet Along

I visited this blog http://stitchymcfloss.blogspot.com  and she was having a Crochet Along (CAL). I thought the doily was so lovely I had to join up. I joined up a few days late so I thought I had to catch up.  Doilies are my weakness. Just had to make this one. Here is the link for the doily.  http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/large-pineapple-doily
