I received three lovely fat quarters for my birthday from Karen and Shelley, who are in the Birthday Fat Quarter Swap in my Friendship Group. Thank you two so much for such lovely fabric!
Also, I finished our appliqued table cloth, but boy was it hard for Joe to take a pic. You had to have seen him on our ladder trying to capture the whole thing. We had to put it on the floor, and then it was impossible to get it totally straight, so it is a bit wrinkled. The other pic he took with the tablecloth on the table. Anyways, you will get the idea. It really brightens up our kitchen. We are going to paint the kitchen yellow and two storage cabinets green, thus I used those colours in our tablecloth.
Someone asked to see my largest white lace doily. It is really lovely, and very detailed lace made from white Madeira Embroidery thread. Happy Friday!

Awww! Madeira! What an exquisite lace to treasure. So delicate, intricate & beautiful. They are getting really expensive & harder to find the vintage ones. TTFN ~Marydon
Ohhhh, that lace doily!!! Simply lovely.
And *poor* Joe, -giggles- I worry about him, on these quests to get complete project pictures. I don't like the idea of him up on ladders. :-)

The doily is something special. I am partial to quilted table toppers and table runners. I make them to match room as well as seasons,too. Love yours

The tablecloth fits just perfectly on the table. What great colors to paint the kitchen. I'm sure it will all be quite cheery when you have it done.
Lovely doily what gorgeous work and the birthday fabrics to celebrate your birthday. Have a happy birthday Micki
Your doilie is just perfection Micki.
Photographing quilts is quite hard isn't it. My husband used to insist on photographing them on the clothes line. But then they keep moving!
cheers
