Spencer Doily


I stated this doily a year or more ago, got tired of working on it and put it aside. When I got it out recently, I realized that by finishing the medallion row which was partially done, I could use it as a finished doily. So I added the rest of the medallions and this is ready to block and frame. It was tatted with YLI thread, varigated beiges. It measures about 8 inches across. I'm thinking it will go well in a set with the small doilies done in the same thread. This doily is the first 8 rows of the Tatted Centerpiece by Mrs. J.C. Spencer. The entire centerpiece has13 rows or rounds. Maybe someday I'll try this again and make the entire centerpiece.
