Tidings of Joy

"Tidings of Joy" is now available in my Etsy shop and on Ravelry.
I want to thank Vicki Mashburn, who did a wonderful job testing this pattern for me. Vicki is a very talented crocheter, and has an amazing eye for detail. I know this pattern is much better for having been tested by her. Thank you so much, Vicki, you are a true blessing to me!

For those of you who have asked, yes I do plan to make more of these doilies. I have a notebook filled with sketches of more fairies, witches, angels and Crinoline ladies. I even have plans for mermaids, fairytale characters, and little girls in different settings (in front of a Christmas tree, holding her dolly, etc.) So I plan to keep making them as long as I am able, hopefully for many long years to come.
I have been trying to come up with a name to describe and distinguish
them; anyone have any ideas? I thought about "Art doilies" but that sounds kind of stuffy to me. So I am open to suggestions!
