Almost finished....sharing....

Helo my friends, I'm almost finished up...doing the edging already this photo was the other day...
Do you remember I finished the Purple white and lime green I had it for sale and I ended up giving it to a older woman in here 80...She was in the lobby at the hospital where I take mom...She was sitting in a chair eating a banana, I noticed on the round table she had a needle and some thread and there was a dish cloth...she had started making a edging around it..
So I got up to ask her how she was doing it...so she explained it to me..A very sweet woman who believed strongly in God. Her conversation was the most wonderful thing...she had said she taught herself how to crochet...I told her basically I did the same well the fine crochet...she o do you crochet, I said yes I do...well we all talked for some time...then I had to go pick up the car and come back and get Mom and Vee...
so as I did just that something told me to go give her that other doily...when I drove up and parked I told Mom and Vee was she still there they said yes. But when I had got there she wasn't. I looked up and she was walking away, I went after her and I said excuse me...she stopped and looked, I placed i over her arm and told her this is for you my dear I reached up and gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek...and she was like omg is this for me really...
Of course I said..you made my day and now I want to make yours...she was so thrilled and grateful...so I walked away she kept saying omg I can't believe it and God bless you...so as I walked away she said you made this and I said yes ....She replied this is just what I been looking for and again she warmed my heart...It was a great experience and well worth it...I was so pleased that she was so happy she deserved it for sure...

Here's my pretty leaf I found yesterday outside...I love it...Well I hope that you are having a most lovely day so far...I'm off and out of here...O update on the doily.
I don't think it's good to make it with a size 11 needle..It doesn't seem to sit rite...so I believe the 7 1/2 I think it is works perfect...
With much love Janice.
