A baby blanket....

with lacey square border.... (learning left hand crochet)

Here is my completed baby blanket for my friend's grand daughter.. It measures 40 inches x 38 inches. The stitch is half double crochet using 2.5 hook. All the thrift-ed yarn cost me about $7.

I did ran out of the variegated yarn, and had to use something a bit different for the edging. I hope it does not ruin the overall look.

I also made these hair clips for her older sister who is going to pre-school. I hope she will be happy to have these.  I am quite content with my achievement and, all is ready to be sent to all the way to France.

A small  crochted tie for a gift box/wrap.

A baby blanket [learning left hand crochet]

I am taking a break from my other projects for this new baby blanket. It is for my friend's grand daughter. She is 4 months now, and I want to make something her.

I am making these lacey squares using baby acrylic yarn made in canada. But, I am still not sure how I want to blanket to be. The yarn balls do have a free pattern printed on other side of the label; one of them was for crocheting and other for knitting. I am not using them; I want try something different.

Thank you for taking your time to stop by, it means a lot to me.

Small reversible quilt - part 3 and Lacey square cushion

I took a break from crocheting and did bit of stitching. I did go a little further with my quilt....I have come to an end, on one of the sides.

here you can see the both sides 

Still a long way to the finish.

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

I, still could not resist, and had to finish the lacey square cushion I had in mind. So, here it is finally done.

I joined squares using a bit thicker yarn (what I had) then added buttons to the panel to make it bit more fancy. The buttons are not exactly what I would have liked.

Then,  slip stitched the panel to the blue material.

Lacey Square [learning left hand crochet]

This is my lesson on Lacey Square.

I am quite pleased with the results.  Even though, the orange squares are a little bit smaller than the yellow ones I am thinking of joining them to make a small cushion.

I also tried this flower.
