This Labor Day weekend has been so relaxed that I almost forgot about Handmade Monday! I don’t have anything handmade to show this week, so I thought I’d make another update on my crocheted tablecloth.
The work is slowing down now as every row gets bigger and bigger. It also gets somewhat tedious and boring. I feel like I’m ready to finish this project, but I am only halfway through. Hopefully, I won’t give it up entirely (something that has happened before with other projects).
If you have something handmade to show this relaxed Labor Day weekend, please link below. If you are joining for the first time, the guidelines are here.
Happy Labor Day!

Hi Olga! Your project is coming along nicely! I know what you mean about slogging through to the end. I get impatient. But it's been a century since I did anything that major. I was so surprised to see my logo on your sidebar! So sweet of you! Makes me feel special! Hope you're enjoying your holiday--it sure seems quiet out there in blogland! Jacqueline
not abandon this great job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is so lovely, Olga! The beginning rows do go so much faster as they don't have as many stitches. But keep your eyes on just how gorgeous the finished tablecloth will be.
We will be your cheering team just like the people on the sidelines of a marathon. Go, Olga, go! You can do it! :)
Your work is beautiful!!!
That is so beautiful and you cannot give up because the finished project, judging from this photo will be extraordinary.
Ladies, thank you for all the encouragement. I won't give up. Slowly, I will continue my work ;-)
That looks like a beautiful piece, enjoy the process. Sometimes I listen to audio books or watch a movie when I am working on a project that is becoming tedious. It'll be lovely to see the end result.
This is a pattern i've never seen Olga but it looks like it will make a lovely tablecloth. I can imagine the smile your Mother will have when she sees the beautiful finished work! She'll be so proud of her protege.
Dearest Olga,
That looks lovely; a very familiar pattern for me as my Mom made once the same doily.

Hi Olga,
I am glad you enjoyed a relaxing weekend... we did too :-) Your doiley is looking beautiful... I always liked quilting even though it was long and "boring" I found the repetition so relaxing:-)
