The Delft Tea Set doilies are designed to evoke the classic blue and white hues of antique porcelain. The five doilies in the set feature matching and complementary patterns as found in the best traditional tea sets.

Of the five doilies, the Plate doily is the simplest and easiest to make. It provides an excellent example of the methods of construction which are used throughout the set.

It is made with size 10 cotton crochet thread:

  • 90 yds white
  • 40 yds sky blue
  • 20 yds royal blue

This doily is designed to be mounted on an 8” floral hoop.
