The Big Doily's Not Done...Yet (also Motifs 8 & 9)

Hello again:

Well I am slowly but surely still plodding along with The Big Doily...
Blue circles completed...
White chain all the way around
White rings and chains
And now... trefoils!!
The never-ending trefoils!
Trefoils, trefoils everywhere...
I'm pretending it's done... but it's not.
Someday it will be finished.

Not today, of course, because I didn't work on it today...so many trefoils!

Today, while I chain-watched "Sense and Sensibility" (two versions, why not) I thought I'd play with interlocking elements, and came up with Motifs 8 and 9:

Put them together and you get...


Add another outer round and you get...the Celtic Flower from Rozella Linden's "Celtic Tatting"


Fun times. :)

It was a nice little refresher, and no trefoils in sight! :
