Diverse Stitch Doily

Diverse Stitches Doily 

Different color combinations give this pattern lots of versatility. 

Create placemat doilies in different colors to match your mood, or make sets to match the current Holiday.

Diverse and interesting stitches make this a fun and exciting project to crochet.

Mandala style doily works up quickly to make enough for a a large table setting in a relatively short time.

The design started as part of the Boho Granny American Flag Collection. Wanting to add Diverse Stitches to the name, and unable to stop with just red, white and blue here, I ended up with the Diverse Stitches Doily, pictured below in;

Ocean Waves, and Autumn Charm colors.

Americana Doily

 

The fun doesn't end there, with its endless possibilities. 


Incase anyone is having issues with the watermelon seeds, please visit Youtube, to see the 'how to' video.

I'm lovin' the WATERMELON one!  🍉

Thank you for stopping by.

Best wishes and happy crocheting!

Crochet Baby Bib


Crochet baby bib is a great baby shower gift for a that special little princess.  


 

With all the February Love inspiration, along with all the January babies, these precious bibs come to mind. You can find a similar pattern for this adorable baby bib on Ravelry by Sonea Delvon
Mine is winged, but was inspired by Sonea's beautiful idea, and shared by Moogly Blog in the crochet baby round up.

February also inspires us to color and paint 💖
I love my children 💖


(drawing above was done in 2014)

💖 Happy Valentine's 💖

May you have lots of LOVE and JOY! 

Best wishes, and happy crocheting!!
