This crafty friday is a "two in one".
This scarf can also be used as a runner.
Supereasy to make.
You need about 20 doilies in different sizes.
Pin them together so that they make a long runner.
Use a sewing machine to sew them all together.
Beautiful on the table and even more beautiful used as a scarf.

Have a fab weekend all!
Cool idea! I'm going doily hunting at the Salvation Army store!

I love this idea! I have doilies that my grandma and mom have made. I packed them away, but I think I need to bring them back out. Thanks!

Nydelige bilder!
Har arvet en fin samling med blonder fra min bestemor, du ga meg inspirasjon til å gjøre noe med samlingen :)

Oh what a beautiful scarf&runner! And what a great coincidence, after seeing a dress made of doilies (here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23439635) I've been falling in love with the material. Your idea is so simple and beautiful, thank you!

I have been so very inspired by your earlier posts on doilies! This shawl/runner is wonderful!

Premier commentaire posté sur ton blog.
tout d’abord, évidemment, félicitations pour cette heureuse nouvelle ! Prends soin de toi et du petit bout qui grandit en toi.
Je me reconnais dans tes mots car quand j’étais enceinte, outre le bonheur évidemment et la reconnaissance de cet « état », j’ai été comme toi, plutôt dans l’envie de me pas exhiber mon ventre. C’était étrange car ce n’est pas que je n’étais pasfière d’être enceinte, juste je n’avais pas envie de centrer l’attention sur mon ventre, sur mon état. De rester une femme avant tout.
