    That is pretty, I used to make big ones like that also. Lost them in Hurricane Katrina to thieves. I became very ill after the storm. Was hospitalized. When I went back to get them, the whole plastic tote was missing. Along with some china I had from overseas.

    It would be beautiful in the center of an unused bed.

    That was exactly my thought. It could also be draped over a rod as a window treatment, just make sure it wouldn't be in direct sun as the cotton threads may rot and discolor.

    Connie, sorry I was late to answer this but why not put that beautiful doily in the middle of a quilt. I have done that with smaller doilies and hankies, etc. I also do it on pillow and embelish them with small beads. Just a thought.

    You do not need a round table. Put a bold colored plain one under. It will make you craftsmanship really show.

    Beautiful work. I have made myself a couple of the pineapple crochet cloths myself and have them around the house.

    I do, I do! :wink: I have a round table.

    Beautiful work. I love making doilies but I've not tackled one so large.
