Over the last few months I have rediscovered the wonderful world of doilies through beadweaving. The inspiration was a couple of different doilies that appeared in Bead & Button magazine this year that I just fell in love with and have been working diligently on. I have altered the original pattern of the one that appeared in the June '07 addition from the simple black and turquoise pattern to a more traditional looking floral dish type pattern. I've done a couple of these now and gotten rave reviews, but keep forgetting to take pictures before I give them to their new owner. Finally I have a picture of one in progress. I have significantly altered this one from the original color pattern, so I am very pleased with its results. The piece shown below is about half way done. I'll post more pictures in time (promise!).
