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.

Kids' beanies
I made these small beanies and vintage hats from patterns. They are small because I could have used the wrong ply yarn and hook. Most likely, I did but they are cuter anyway, pity I don't have any little girls in my family yet. I also bought that pink yarn which I regretted buying a day after. I thought to myself it is ugly I don't know why I bought it in the first place but I do like the result now. I like the pink vintage hats. So that could happen to you too, one day, where you hate your purchase of yarn but what you do with it it will be a great. The hats are from patterns but I did alterations to some because I saw them small and also extended the rows.I always learn something new. Here on these beanie I did those three rows it is fun to do that. I used the same technic for the other two hats. How that ribbon came about I searched for crochet ribbons and it turned up. I also had to make the crab stitch on the ribbon which is new too for me.
How nice is the hat below I didn't know it looks that good. Seeing it on the model I love it. It is from a free pattern, I could have made extra rows if I saw it small and extended the increases of stitches. I will make another one with different colour of flower.

Lala-Oopsie doll
I started this few months ago and I wanted to finish what I started, this is also one of them. I stopped making it after I joined her up. I started different colour of hair and I wasn't sure of it so that is why I stopped. I didn't think it was going to look good so I always have a reason why I stop finishing them. I started on a dress pattern from Amigurumi BB and I changed it a little. I think red looks good for a dress with black trimming. I wanted to making striking colour for hair so I went for strong yellow. I would have finished it differently if I kept going on it few months back even though I looked at so many dolls for inspirations. I kind of made her hair like a blonde doll with a red ribbon but her dress is completely different than that doll. For the boots I also looked at another doll just to try it out. If you guys would like this doll it is from Amigurumi BB which I thank her so much for the patterns.

Garters
Here are the garters I made I bought more material then I needed so I made three of them. I just had to join the seams and add ribbon and on one of them I did a buckle of some sort. The middle one has it if you look closer. This was so easy to make and much cheaper too. There are pink but she needed something blue.
Bride's bouquet
Here is the bride's bouquet. Again I made it up to her taste. she wanted feathers, pearls, net and satin ribbon. It is the shape she wanted it to be. I also added a ribbon but I can't take photo of it sorry guys.

Decorating candles sticks
I decorated these wedding candles sticks with lace and ribbon. I also added a band of lovely thingy I don't even know what it's called. My daughter showed me a picture of how she wanted them more or less. I bought some ribbon and lace of her chioce of colour. I used hot glue to stick everything together according to how I wanted the look. Also what I did burn the ends of the ribbon slightly without leaving black burn. I also bought lovely buttons and I used pliers to cut the loop so it sticks flat more. Here is a picture of my candles sticks it was really fun to make. A closer look before I added the ribbon on.
Corsages
I made these corsages for my daughter's wedding which happened yesterday. I made these out of artificial flowers. My daughter chose the flowers and colours we bought way too many extra flowers. It wasn't very hard to make added feathers and pearls to them and ribbon to finish them up. One lady wanted the corsages on her wrist so I made that on a pearl bracelet. Here is a picture of all of them plus one for my grandson.

Heart with flowers
I was asked to make three of these hearts of flowers. I was supplied with the heart wires and flowers. I have made a florist course many years ago. I made the course with fresh and dry flowers. I have an idea how they are made. I did them in couple of nights here is a picture of one of them. She still haven't seen them and I hope she likes them. I won't be charging her for them. I will keep you posted if she did or not.
