It looks really good!!!!! I love that design. And I'll waggle my slightly
singed finger at you and sternly remind you that no one would notice any
faults in it at all if you didn't point them out!!!! (I kinda ironed
myself yesterday...that's the danger of pressing that much hem. Got one
finger and my forearm. *sigh*)

That will be oh so lovely when you're done. It's really kind of soothing to
sit and do some handwork like that sometimes isn't it? I'm doing a
crocheted tablecloth right now......and for the next 10 years or so. LOL
It's a pattern from my grandmother's stash. It's pineapple doilies all
joined together. I think I will need 50 of them to fit my table with both
leaves extended. I have 16 done. lol I don't think it will be ready for
Christmas dinner this year. ;)
