What's New: A Basketful of Beauties!
Hi! Hope you are having a happy day so far!
Sometimes I worry that I don't really have anything super interesting to share, but instead of fretting about it, I decided to buckle down and go ahead and share one of the projects I've been working on recently! My Felt Matryoshka dolls!
I just finished stitching a whole basketful of my little Felt Matroshka dolls, and got them listed in my shop!
I love how each one has it's own personality!
Every single one is completely unique...and there won't ever be another exaclty like her...just like real girls!
Things to Make: Crochet Kimono Cardigan
I've been busy with the start of a new school year for my kiddos, but while they've been at school I've been busy trying to write up a pattern for my new favorite thing: a Crochet Kimono Cardigan.
Kimono-style shrugs are all the rage right now, and when I came across this amazing Mandala yarn by Lion Brand I knew I wanted to try making a Kimono of my own!
Pinterest Inspiration: Ocean Waves Baby Blanket
I recently came across a beautiful picture on Instagram of an afghan that was made from corner to to corner. I was instantly intrigued and wanted to try the pattern out myself!
I found the perfect tutorial/pattern by Susan Carlson from Felted Button...Seriously go check out her beautiful patterns!!
Now all I needed was some color inspiration! So I went to my Color Things board on Pinterest, and found this lovely seascape color palette...
Pinterest Inspiration: Mint and Coral Color Inspiriation
Today I wanted to share a pretty palette I've been crushing on! Sometimes when I'm wandering around on Pinterest, I come across a color scheme that I just LOVE! (I often use color schemes I find on Pinterest as inspiration when I'm making afghans and scarves.)
I found this picture a bit ago, and it inspired me to crochet a baby blanket. (I came up with a Flower Granny Square variation on my own and will be posting a pattern for it in the near future!)
