Crochet and Couples

I know it has been few and far between...my posts I mean. Our couples night went really well I think. Everyone seemed to have a good time. When everyone came in they were "greeted" with candlelight and a lighted arch which lead the way to the tables. The tables were decorated beautifully, with the help from Mrs. M. =) There were 13 handmade doilies...one for each couple to take home. As for those of you who were wondering....they are all PK doilies. (from this book) So without further ado....here are the pictures that some individuals have requested. ;) The first 13 pictures are of the doilies of course!














Here are a couple of pictures of the place settings.


Here is a picture of everyone seated at their places as we were getting started.
This picture is of the candlelight that greeted people.
This next picture is of three couples playing "Jeopardy" and the winning couple received a gift card to the Olive Garden.
And here are the wonderful helpers (so nice to have help cleaning up.)
Some of the women "catching up".

I thought I would end a picture of Hubby and I...I was debating on putting it up or not. So...here you go.

I started on the doilies at the end of February! My favorite one is the 5th from the top, but it went to a wonderful lady who has a 3 week old baby. It was hard to give away, but I got more practice....so now I know which ones I want to do. =)

Your doilies were so pretty and a lot of hard work, your couples night out is a good idea more churches should do it.
