I have been crocheting a few doilies lately. This one is called Victorian Rose Doily. It is from May 2003 Crochet Fantasy. My friend Cathy turned me on to this pattern some time ago.
I think it is pretty but you can not really set a bowl or something in the middle due to the large raised flower in the center.
I have seen a few other doilies by the same name on the net.
