Those are both beautifully done. You are the queen of crochet!

Absolutely gorgeous. You are doing a wonderful job on them.

goodness no lol. my neighbor has this huge front room and I wanted a complete pic of it...

Thanks Ladies, I 'm so glad it thrills you as much as it thrills me lol....the color is just wonderful and I stuck to her color scheme and just pick through it but it didn't matter what I picked, it all went together. I love the gypsyness of it....I so enjoyed doing the mandala that I ordered DK yarn from England and it's coming in box here and there.. and the colors are awesome....this time it will be my choice of colors lol....

Oh my goodness, they are works of art. What a great way to keep the memory of your MIL. And, what a great way to upcycle. They are both beautiful!

I just love the mandala. Where did you find the pattern for it? I haven't crocheted much in years but I might be tempted to start again to make something that pretty.

Just love it. Absolutely beautiful work.

Awesome. What great works of art. They are beautiful.

The colors are spectacular! This is all done with the yarn you repurposed? I haven't crocheted in a long time, but this is tempting......where did you find the pattern? And the Persian tiles.......wonderful! Makes me want to visit the yarn dept. again

wow that is pretty
