Crochet Appliqués!


I found these adorable appliques in Michael's this summer.
I don't think many people saw them because they were tucked away in the back of the store.
I waited till they were on clearance and then bought my favorites!
It was hard not to buy them all.


They also had crocheted hats, gloves, headbands, booties, etc.
I decided on a baby hat and headband. They are so precious:)
I sewed the appliques on using invisible thread.

I am very happy with the way they turned out. I did feel like I was cheating though, all I did was take two pre-made projects and put them together. Not very imaginative!

I have already used a few of the other appliques, so I will try to get pictures of them and post them.

Until then next time~Anna

Little Girl clothes!

This Little jumper was a complete expirament! I was folding some baby clothes to give away when I came across an adorable little jumper(not pictured). I was looking at it and decided that it probably wasn't that hard to make one. And...off I went to the sewing room. I made the pattern myself, and recycled a pair of jeans for the denim. Add lining, ric-rac(around the bottom), buttons, a cute turtle applique, and I had a blue ribbon at the fair!

This is a dress that won blue last year.
Happy sewing! Anna
