for my daughter.


i finally finished this little blanket that i've been working on since august. yesterday i learned how to crochet flowers for a little finishing touch. the things you can learn on youtube! i made a whole bunch of these flowers because they are so easy & cute... but i have no use for them. any ideas?
p.s. the green is much cuter than it appears in these pictures. it's "sweet pea" green and it looks sage in the pics.

I LOVE IT! I think the crocheted flowers look so cute on little crocheted hats. You can even attatch them to an alligator clip so you can change them.

how CUTE!!! I love it!! I was gonna say turn the flowers into bows or onto hats :)

Amy said...

Those are so dang cute! Your daughter is so lucky you love her...*sigh*

Amen to the hat/bow idea. I like it. Does it make me old if I want to pin one on a bag too?

Gretchen said...

oh so cute. I didn't make anything like that for Lucy. I agree with everyone else, they would be SO cute as hair bows :)

LOVE!! Your daughter is so lucky! You're going to be the best mom- you already are and she isn't even here yet!

Coopers said...

wow. that looks amazing. i have no idea how to do that sort of thing. very very cute.

Perfect idea for the flowers: send some to me and with the leftovers, make hair bows. Just hot glue them to alligator clips from Sally's. You'll be able to use them before you know it.
