This week I received a very special package in the mail with another one of my grandma's crocheted doilies. I have an extensive collection of these so I thought I would pick out a few of my favorites today to share and be thankful for the wonderful creativity and love of my grandma. She's amazing at 97, truly an inspiring woman for me, and still crocheting all kinds of patterns from memory. She claims she doesn't know how to read the patterns so she looked at pictures and can still replicate these beautiful creations.
What a wonderful tribute to your Grandmother!! She is so very talented. It must have been passed down to you, because you can do everything too.
ReplyDeleteWow! She is amazing. I sometimes have trouble just getting through a pattern to preview it before I even begin to knit or crochet. Cherish those doilies. She is really a treasure.
ReplyDeletethose doilies are amazing! I wish your grandmother would teach me how to crochet.
ReplyDeleteMaybe someday I'll attempt doilies, I love grandma's though. I only have one and it's probably 12yrs old now ;) I have issues with patterns too. I do the same thing with bags, I can look at a picture and make it. I think our family is full of amazing & inspirational women!
