Please visit Crochet Insider to find instructions for a bright doily made with flowers from Crochet Bouquet!
I tried several ways to put the flowers together, as you can see from the test pieces here.
I settled on the doughnut-shaped mat.
Why a doughnut shape? Because the many different types and textures of yarn make the surface of the mat uneven. The hole in the middle is so you can nestle in your vase or bowl, with no worries about it being wobbly!
