Mudpie the Bear loves her new hat! She has lots of crocheted clothes but was bugging me for a Happy Hat, so I made her one. :D Here's the link to the free June Pattern-of-the-Month on my crochet forum "Sisters N Stitches". Register there for an email notification when new free patterns are posted!

"Sprig of Leaves" Crochet Applique pattern (clickable):D
Working on a girl's custom boutique design for Etsy, and started with a crazy quilt theme bodice applied to a muslin foundation. I added some leaf sprig crocheted applique followed by embroidery. Loads of fun!
The design has been dubbed "By the Sea". :D
I will post images as the project progresses but I have already learned several things for the next time.
This embellishment (applique and embr) would look better on a simple solid fabric, next time I will stick with some lace, braid and or/ small amount of embr on the seams. :P

Image for Today:


Anytime is a good time to Crochet, but the gentle murmur of the rain, the silent journey of fluttering snow, or the tinkle of icy branches moving in the breeze is a perfect backdrop for reflection and introspection that melds my heart with the yarns ....... spinning memories and dreams.

Photo for the Day



My very favorite pictures over the years are the ones of the snow. Maybe its because we so seldom get any here in Georgia, or the peace and quietude (:P) in the wunnderful world of white or because it is so ghastly hot and humid in August I'd love to bury my face in the coldness for a refreshing moment.
As DH sleeps peacefully in the cold & wet a.m. of southeast US I will crank down the heat, cuddle up in my rocker facing the fireplace hole of shyly winking Christmas lights and greenery and happily crochet. :D
