Doily dress by ArmoursansAnguish
Doily table runner - with great tutorial on how to make it - from Ashley Anne – under the sycomore
Covered Stones by Knittalatte
For example doilies - hopelessly old fashioned, would have been my first thought - until i've discovered these ideas. Now i wish i still had a grandmother, who could make some for me, to give one of these projects a go.
Maybe the next visit to the fleamarket will offer opportunities - what do you think?

I treasure the doilies my great-grandma has made for me. They make me so happy. I want to frame them, right now they just sit on my coffee table.
ReplyDeleteOH these ideas sent my mind floating with pleasure to new hights!
ReplyDeletei make crochet all the time...they are 'old fashioned' and that's just why they retain their charm and romance..
the table runner is something I'm already working on...but with newly made pieces of my own creations...
but the dress is a whole wonderful new line of thought...i was thinking of embellishing t-shirts....and that would be a good thing too..but a dress....well!!!! wow!
thrify doilies are great when you run into some...they are so pretty....and so many patterns can be found...
if you're looking for new...i'm your girl!
ciao bella
