A little inspiration from friends

I was going thru all of my blogger friends posts yesterday, and I got an inspiration. On one of the blogs was a photo, from another site (thanks Trayna), of the most awesome doilies from a Russian tatter's page. Now, I don't usually do doilies, maybe one a year if that, but these were so beautiful.  One was a dragon in a circle of his own fire, another a mash up of a lot of butterflies and flowers. So, I got the idea for a new doily for me... what else, a bat.  I am working on it now, and so far, I like it. I don't know how long it will take, or how it will turn out, I guess we will all just have to wait to see.

PS.. if anyone knows where I can get the pattern for the dragon doily, please let me know!

I agree. All of the doilies at that webpage are impressive, but I, too, would love to do the dragon one. In fact, I would probably wind up making several as I'm not the only dragon fanatic in our family.
