Say Hello to Sprinkles & Oliver

"Sprinkles" The Blanket


This is Sprinkles the latest blanket that I have completed. I've watched so many lovely people make lovely v-stitch blankets lately and I couldn't resist making one myself. So here she is. I named her Sprinkles because her colors remind me of a bottle of sprinkles.


"Oliver" The Blanket


...and this is Oliver, I couldn't make a v-stitch blanket for a girl and not make one for a boy!

Today I finished Sprinkles, shes got a border and all ends are weaved in, however i'm thinking of blocking her later today.

Things have been going good, i've been coming up with my fall inventory line, what I want to carry and things. I will keep everyone posted.

Until next time friends.

What a Watermelon

Afternoon dear friends, hope for all of my fellow American readers you had a great Fourth of July! My dear best friend was in town this past week with her  little guys so I spent the last week visiting with her, not much crochet happened. *shame face* It was well worth neglecting my crochet for. 

I'm currently working on this gem, the colors remind me of watermelons. Check my etsy soon for the listing


That's about it for now. No new tutorials or patterns just yet. Currently working on one and hope to have it up next week. 

Until next time, have a great rest of the week and weekend.

Something Fishy This Way Comes

Aah a break! I currently have no orders to work on; that makes me happy yet sad. My four lapghans turned out so beautifully, I'm so happy. Lapghans aren't even something I do, but my client asked if I could make them so why not?

Here are all four all finished and folded



I had a slight creative streak the other night and crocheted this cute little baby blanket.<3 p="">



I just listed it on Etsy today. I'm thinking of making one in girl colors with a different applique, maybe flowers. I came up with the pattern for the fish and I will be posting that soon. I think they're so cute! I think the blanket is going to be perfect for someone with a fish/ocean themed nursery maybe even a beach themed one as well. I made if from leftover yarn I had from the other blankets. I have so much yarn I really need to just sit down and crochet, crochet, crochet. 

I've been trying to come up with some patterns to post on here. I've come up with a few I just need to take the time to write them out and do a run through with pictures and such. Fun!

Well here's what I plan to do in the next few weeks or so:

Fish pattern
Headband pattern
Disney themed crochet bunting pattern (going to be so cute)
Crochet flower bunting pattern

So be on the lookout for those posts and patterns.

Thanks for reading my blog.

Until next time have a great memorial day!

Its all fun and games...

... Until you have to weave in the ends.

I definitely find this part of crochet to be most boring, time consuming and irritating part of making anything.

I would have just crocheted continuously, switching yarns and never cutting; but then your forced to have a border that looks weird.

So cutting and weaving in the ends it is. 


We are almost there.

A Crochet Baby Blanket in Neutral Colors




I received a custom order for this lovely blanket a few days ago; it is going to be so beautiful! I'm making it as a baby shower gift for my clients niece but  they don't know the sex yet. She gave me the colors the couple likes and I chose the color sequence. I think they will love it! It's one of my favorites i've made so far.

Time to get back to that beautiful blanket
