Crochet handmade girl's coat

I saw this crochet coat and I liked it so much that I had to make it. I like the ears on the hood and the bow at the back. I had to follow a video and I wanted to use her colours yarns too but here we haven't got a big selection.It is not hard to make and since I have grandsons only it will be on etsy. I would like to make one in a single crochet but it might take forever to make. I still haven't found the correct buttons for it. I like to make them in dusty pink or purple pink. I am still looking for the correct buttons My last resolution is white. I love the ears on the hood. Here is the girl's coat.

Crochet sleeping bag and new born pants

I  remember why I wanted to make this sleeping bag. I saw it on Facebook and I liked it. It was a free pattern but when I started the pattern I didn't think it was coming good. I had to make it as I knew how and kept going with the hood too. It would have been nice if I could have done that pattern but there was no video or anything. Anyway I had left over yarn so I gave the crochet pants a try. It was fairly easy and I was only left with a small peace of yarn. I saw a video on you tube how to make this pants in case any of you are interested. It is a new born size. Here are they for you to see.

Crochet flower cocoon

I was inspired but another cocoon flower. I always seem to put my touch into these pieces that I make.I made more and different petals. I also made this for a bigger baby. I love how I made this hat I need to make another one because I like it. I have such a bad habit that I don't write anything down as how I made the petals. I always think I will know how to but no I will forget how I did it. In this process I tried to use a lot of yarn that I had which is good. I already bought more yarn to make more of these cocoons for my etsy shop. I think you agree it did came nice and big for a 8 lb baby. This is also good for photo shoot.

Bridesmaid flowers

Lucky for me I happened to have learnt florist course many years ago. I used my skills when my eldest daughter got  married. This time was for my youngest daughter. She also had three bridesmaid so I made three bouquets. As I said before she chose her flower colours. Here they are sorry about the mess on the sides but my phone is not working properly.

Baby blanket

I made this baby blanket for a girl for something different. I loved the pattern. I googled free crochet patterns and you could look on you tube how the pattern is done.The colours are like napoletan ice cream. I work tight and mind you I use a larger hook. I think it looks nicer when the design is larger. I made a border to finish it up and I think it looks nicer with it. Baby wraps are easy to make and it takes a while to finish it but it is very rewarding once it's done. Giving them as gifts is a nice thing. Anyway here is my blanket for a baby girl.

My daughter's flowers


I made this bouquet for my daughter's wedding four or five years ago. I made these from foam flowers and all the artificial flowers. I put pearls pins only in the bride flowers.I will post a picture of some of them but I can't right now. I made corsages and flowers for the church benches. I also decorated the church with fresh flowers. It was pretty hectic on the day to make the church flowers. I have another daughter to get married this year, I am not going to do the church ones but I will be doing the rest if God's willing. You can see at the back the bridesmaid ones but not clearly. Anyway it is fun to be able to make things yourself very rewarding. Can you spot the Diamond ring?
