Black Pineapples doily

Here it is! I finally got it finished and starched. It is very pretty. I love the contrast it sets on our wood dining table. If you didn't know, each point or teardrop shape in the crochet world is called a pineapple, thus the name of the doily.

Last night I wrote my pattern for the plaid bag. It will end up being a messenger bag because the pattern I have calls for more fabric than I have. It will look great though. I am hoping I can get it all done today. But since it is Sunday, it is a family day, and me time can be limited. But family is a much better way to spend the day.
