    Question Little doily

    This is a doily I started as a doodle a couple of weeks ago. I'm pretty pleased with it, especially considering it's humble, unplanned, start. I do wonder about the last round and thought I would ask your opinion.
    Does this look finished? Does it need another round? IMG_5121 resized..jpg

    I'm debating about entering this in the local county fair. It wouldn't be in a tatting category, it would be "Doilies - Miscellaneous". I would have to get this to the fair Thursday afternoon (7/15) so I don't have a lot of time to debate about it.

    Because of the edging, it already looks finished, it's lovely. Once you get it back there is nothing to stop you adding another few rows and entering it again next year!!!!

    This is sweet. I don't think that you need to add another round to it. It is lovely as it is.

    It's lovely the way it is. Unless you've got a really great idea about what you might want to add, I'd certainly enter it as it is.

    I like it very much. I think it looks lovely just the way it is. You should definitely enter it and let us know how things turn out.

    I'd say enter as is unless you have firm ideas about the next row that you want to add. It looks lovely now, in my opinion (and apparently shared by many others *glancing at earlier posts*)

    It seems to be finished and it is really very lovely, I like it ;-) (I know, sometimes it seems I love all tatted doilies..)

    I agree, submit it as is. And congratulations! Like a writer who starts a book and then the characters take him somewhere, your "doodle" set the characters and then they took you to this great design!
