3-D doily

Amongst the various small projects I'm working on right now, I'm crocheting this:

Because sometimes I just need to prove I can make something totally frilly and useless if I WANT to, darn it.

I'm currently on round 17 of 19. I'm probably done for tonight, I'm getting too sleepy and I have to get up early tomorrow.

It's pretty, and it's got the hearts and all, but it's distressingly UN-flat. I'm wondering if ironing it, maybe with a soft cloth over it, will work when it's done. Or is it okay that it's not terribly flat? Crocheting doilies is not part of my regular project schedule.

I'll get back to more serious work soon. The extra yarn is here so I can finish those socks soon, and the mother-daughter crocheted hats are done. (The dress I planned to wear WITH the hat has not yet arrived, darn it.)

*Very* pretty! Just be sure to alternate it with projects done in larger thread; my grandma nearly put her eyes out doing the doily thing with micro-thread.

You have an impressive range of textile talents; have you ever read any of the Monica Ferris craftshop mysteries? They're excellent!
