And, yes, to those of you who know that there was to be a matching pink one: it is also finished. Nina, if you are reading this, no fair telling Jenny before Wednesday!
But back to crochet, I think one of my all favorite crochet items are "doilies". I have so many from my mother-in-law and sisters-in law and I love them. And this time of year, I think there's nothing much better than a Christmas tree with lots of crocheted snow flakes. (Oh, I guess I should admit: No, I didn't make these; they are a mail order purchase.)
Now that I'm up to date on my knitting, and the first group of family Christmas visitors have come and gone, I think I'll actually get back to my quilting project that has been so patiently awaiting my return.
And in the meantime, even though it's a night early: from our East Tennessee home
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT.
from Mary Lynn and Terry

My mom used to make those crochet doilie stars, too. I have some I hang on my tree. Merry Christmas!
There is nothing that says Christmas like crocheted snowflakes! And no, I didn't make mine either, they were perchased from a sweet 96 year old woman at a Michigan craft fair a few years ago. They are hanging in my windows as we speak!
Hope your Chrismas was Merry!
Are the pink and blue blankets for twins? It looks so nice.
