Espresso

Amazingly enough, I am still working on Patricia Kristoffersen's pattern, Espresso.  I only have about 3 and a half rows to go. 

I laid this project down about 12, maybe 15 years ago.  I was afraid that I was going to run out of thread.  15 years ago, crochet thread was hard to come by.  So I packed it away and forgot all about it.

Life is certainly different now!  Crochet thread is everywhere.  I have moved 3 times.  Divorced.  Rediscovered my love of doilies!

Old doily coming back

I wanted to update on the Espresso doily, I am still working on it, but it's slow going.  My last few doily's were from Grace Fearon, so this one is really tame in comparison.  It really is a beautiful piece, I just have to be patient and stick with it.
