Beyond The Block: Distinctive Filet Designs By Guess Who...
Little ole Me......
I have finally finished up putting together my book of filet designs. I have been working on compiling and making up these designs for over a year now. Though it has been a labor of love for me as I love filet work. I have tried to incorporate designs that use different shaping and stitches to move your filet work beyond the classic block and mesh filet work.
There are 12 designs in this book ranging from beginner to intermediate. Included are my Ramblin Roses Shawl, Gypsy Queen Runner, Silverspoon Doily, Camelot Runner, Jubilee Doily, Classy Rose Runner, Teacher's Pet Doily, Paragon Runner, Heart in Flight Doily, Sparkling Waters Dresser set, Filet Coaster Set, and my Filet Box.
You can find this book at my Website here (http://www.crochetnbeads.com/) and in my Etsy shop here (http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5333971)

Congrats on the new book. I like the black coasters. The use of black really makes them look so different.
