There hasn’t been a lot of time for crochet recently as I’ve been working on a different kind of project these last few weeks – hopefully I’ll be able to share that one with you in a month or so.
I have managed to squeeze in a teeny weeny bit of crochet though.
Inspired by the crochet flower heart wreath by Lucy of Attic 24 in issue 15 of Simply Crochet Magazine…
I made this hanging Crochet Flower Letter for one of Missy’s friends for her birthday.
I used Patons 100% Cotton 4 Ply in various lovely colours…
And rather than using the flower pattern in the magazine, because the flowers would’ve worked out very dinky indeed in the 4 Ply yarn, I used the first part of Lucy’s Triple Layer Flower Tutorial – my go to flower pattern.
I then stitched on some very pretty buttons from my button stash and tied the flowers to pipe cleaners, weaving in the ends of the yarn to finish.
I wanted to add leaves but ran out of time but I think the finished result looked pretty enough. What do you think?
Happy 1st birthday! I’m sure you are going to be going from strength to strength. Your blog is great and you are one talented lady! Before you know you it, you’ll have 10 million hits! π
Thank you Natasja! I really appreciate your lovely comment. 10 million hits seems like a pretty big target – but there’s nothing wrong with aiming high x
