Recently, Diana Dwyer sent me these pictures of the Ruby's Valentine Doily that she had made. I loved her use of colors in the doily! She explained how she came to use this particular combination:

Diana says:
I couldn’t wait to try this pattern, so I went into
my "stash" of thread. I thought I’d have enough of the candy pink to do it, but after the
flower, I knew better. So I went back to my stash and found I had little bit left of 2
other pink shades. I didn't want it to look like I ran out of thread so this is what I came up with.
You did a beautiful job, Diana!
I will select the winner at random, and send out the patterns in the morning (Saturday.) I will post the name of the winner here, so be sure to check back in the morning to see if you won. If I do not hear back from the winner within 7 days, I will select a new winner. Failure to contact me within 7 days will result in the forfeiture of all prizes.
Also, if you post anonymously, please be sure I have a way to identify you (at least give your first name or a nick name in your comment; I have no way of knowing who is posting.) You can also leave your email address with your comment so I can notify you if you win, but this is optional.
To enter, just leave a comment here on the blog answering this question:
Do you usually use the colors called for in a pattern, or do you like to change things up and select your own color scheme?
This contest is now closed, please stop by again soon!
