A Note from the Contributor

Maria C. Vallejo: Crochet Starburst is a common theme when creating doilies. A small circle of stitches gives birth to imaginative ways to spend hours in almost a meditative trance while crocheting. This doillie crossed my path. I felt like I had to rescue it from the least visited basket in a thrift shop.
