I love 'em.
Well if i do what my intention is with it, ( 10 minute block quilts) it wont last long. lol.. One of the backings already has a purpose, ( which I need to get going on ) but the other 3 well there were just because . lol..
As for the doily. No I id not make that one. My mother used to crochet all the time, then she lost most of her sight from macular degeneration so, she started crocheting with 2 strands of bedspread weight cotton. She could feel this better than with one. She made this one. I still have some she made when she could see and they are in my cedar chest. I will hand them down to my grandchildren when the time comes.
