Blogging has made me more adventurous and decisive. A little bit more than one week back I submitted a tiny form on the site called CraftGossip. The site features crafty ideas, tutorials from around the world from different bloggers and designers. I decided to try it out and sent the idea of my granny square doily with red flower decoration. Was I happy to receive a positive response from the crochet editor of the site JD Wolfe that my project would be featured on the 12th of September!
I made the doily while being at my parents' dacha last month. The doily stayed with parents, but who knew its adventure would continue! If you are interested you can go and check how it looks like following the link Granny Doily. The editor wrote a nice brief article about it. Well, it is not that grand project I think and the deal is not in being popular by showing it to everyone. The joy comes more from participation and I hope that someone would find this idea of home decor useful. I was advised by my fellow blogger Bonitabonbons to make a whole granny square blanket out of such doilies ;) Let's see. I am ready for new projects!
Congratulations! I'm really pleased for you! I'm really happy to see how quickly your crochet has progressed since you first emailed me when you started learning earlier in the year, you've got so good at it! Well done! I really liked this little crochet doily when you showed it before so I'm glad you took the plunge to get it featured somewhere. Keep up the great work! :)
