OK.....I started this on Monday...had to have something to do..and believe it or not..crocheting comforts me. My mind goes quiet and I find peace. It is not made with DMC thread...I wanted to try this thread that self stripes...I saw a few on a group I am in on facebook and they look pretty good...The thread is called ALIZE miss, Batik...I found it on etsy...anyway....the thread is not a tight thread..and is extremely soft and doesn't work up like Cebelia or Babylo...the color results are amazing, but the thread just doesn't hold a candle to Cebelia or Babylo....so the end result is a nice looking doily, but not what I consider to be heirloom quality...but I am a thread snob......If I want a multi colored doily without having to make a bunch of thread changes I might use it again....to keep from having to weave in loose ends....

So very sorry about your fur-baby. I know how it hurts to lose them. My heart goes out to you. But know he is at the Rainbow Bridge - waiting for you -- in no pain, running & playing & watching for you! The doily is beautiful - the colors are exquisite! Beautiful pattern, too!!! May I ask what pattern you used? Thanks so much, and may God bless you.

So sorry for your loss!
Love the doily!
Sorry to hear about your dog. Our dog makes a point to come say "hello" to me whenever I go outside. Love the doily. Stay warm and crochet!
So sorry about Buddy!! =( Very sad.
The doily is beautiful--I love that idea of self-striping doily.
Truly sorry to hear about your dog :( I empathize completely and understand how crochet can help. As for the doily - gorgeous.
I am so, so sorry for your loss. Our pets do become our family and frankly I think sometimes they are the only family that does not hassle us. They provide companionship and unconditional love. You are in my thoughts and prayer, but you did the right thing for your boy.

BIG HUG!
May sweet Buddy forever run free and healthy in Heaven now. He was such a cutie. I send you ((hugs)) my sweet friend for I know your heart is hurting....mine as well. It broke my heart to read that he was dragging his sweet little self around to follow you in his last days. No greater friend can we have than a loyal and faithful pet. You were indeed his pack, and he loved you as much as you loved him. Bless you sweet friend. ((hugs))
Really sad to read this because even myself too have been growing a dog in my home as my pet. Regularly, it will send off me daily from my home while i have been going to my custom research paper writing office. But, for the past 1 week, it has been seems to be very weak and it feels to be sick i think so. Even i had consulted the doctor, after checking he told that it is very sick and so it is unable to save it. So, me too very sad on hearing that as it has been like one of my family member.
So sorry for the loss of your dog, Vikki. Sending good thoughts and prayers your way! Your doily is gorgeous...I love the look that kind of thread gives to doilies. :)
