My latest crochet wildflower design – the Nerve Ray!

For sale here in my Etsy shop!

My first attempt at an embroidered butterfly pin!

I have been playing with mixed media and my crochet wildflowers by adding a needlepoint butterfly and some colored pencil Mexican Hats.

This Spring has been an amazing one for our wildflowers. Dean has been taking so many pictures and video that I was inspired to create these crochet versions of two of my favorites – the Mexican Hat and Greenthread. I have some other designs in the works!

So I am in love with little metal sew-on purse frames, they work wonderfully with my fine gauge crochet. Here is my first owl purse, I am working on a green one right now. I am hooked.

A treasury that included my Moroccan needlepoint cuff made the front page overnight!

I have been working on a new line of crochet lace wash clothes. 100% cotton, great colors and they are wonderful for use on your face as a light exfoliant, yet soft enough for all around use.

This is my latest needlepoint cuff bracelet design, my iron fritzed out on me yesterday so I have been delayed on the finishing part. I hated that iron any way, so next week when I get back from LA I will start foraging for a new one.

The colors for this design were inspired by a custom order I am finishing for one of my Etsy customers – I love custom orders because they inspire me to get out of my comfort zone and tap into new ideas! So, keep them coming folks.

This would look incredible as a pillow…maybe when work settles back down I will go for it.

About 4 years ago in 2008 I first made this cute little crochet Easter bonnet. I was messing around making hats and made this one without writing my pattern down. I also used a pansy flower design that was not my own. So, fast forward to 2012 and I finally have created the pattern using my original pansy flower design!

As you can see from the comments on this post, I am WAY overdue!

Would you like to know how I inserted the zipper and lining into this purse? Here is a tutorial on how to do this!

Started this Friday and finished Saturday, crocheted with Dark Olive Hilos La Espiga nylon no.18. I took my favorite leather purse and created a template for me to crochet.

Now for sale in my Etsy shop – stop by and take a look! This is the first in a line of crochet purses that I have been working on this year, more coming soon!
