New pattern - Windflower Doily

Just wanted to pop in and say that I've just released a new doily pattern, Windflower. :) It is very textured and consists of 25 rounds.

Windflower was influenced while I was in Ireland in 2017. While studying in Dublin, we had the opportunity to go on a class trip to Airfield Estate, in the suburb of Dundrum. It's a fully working farm within County Dublin. Outside of their restaurant, Overends, are beautiful bushes of flowers.

Everything is truly greener in Ireland, and I have to say that this shows even in the flowers I saw in Ireland. Ever since I came back home to Florida, none of the flowers are as beautiful. One of the flowers that popped out to me were the pink Japanese anemones a.k.a. Windflowers.

I have not designed a pattern in a few months. I am currently in my last semester of undergraduate studies while concurrently taking graduate level classes. Also, I was recently accepted into the full graduate program for next year, so that has definitely kept me very busy. 

I might not design another pattern for a while since I'm preparing for graduation (about 60 days to go!!) and an internship this upcoming summer. Until then, enjoy more pictures of Ireland. :)
