Happily Crocheting

Hello my friends!!!!
How are you?
Hope everything is ok for you all... :O)

Winter is still here...cold temperatures and snow all around...
So this is the perfect time for...stay inside and do our favourite crafting...
During these cold days, I love to stay inside, near the fireplace, with a cup of hot tea (sometimes...hot chocolate...LOL) and...crochet!
I found it so relaxing...
So, I would love to show you some projects I did lately...

Here there are some doilies...
I have to say that I've never be a big fan of crochet doilies...my grandma made them but...always lace doilies with really tin white cotton...not my style at all...LOL...
But making them with colorful cotton and  4mm hook...well...I think they look nice!!!
So, THIS IS  the free pattern I used...

Then, I made this one with chunky yarn...
It remembers me a snowflake and I think it's so snowy...
I love it for winter time...
I used THIS FREE PATTERN...
For the 1st time...I made crochet buntings...
They are so much fun to make and looks great in every room of your house!!!


And...last...this is my work in progress project...a ripple rug...

I loooove ripples but...never made them before...tought they were so hard to make...
But...I found THIS TUTORIAL from Lucy Attic24, it's so easy to follow...
And I'm enjoying make my rug...

Hope you like my projects and that my links for free patterns and tutorials can inspire you... :O)
Happy crocheting and...Happy Crafting!!!!
Have a lovely week end.
XOXO, Dany

This is my new pouch style, a heart shaped zipper pouch.
I'm so in love for it because it's nice, it's pretty, it's roomy and so unique!
It's part machine sewed and part hand sewed and it requires about 3 hours of work...
I've already made one in purple and I'm going to make others...
What do you think about it?
You can find my pouch HERE.


Then I created few  news PDF Sewing Patterns...
One is my "Happy Walking Double Zipper  Case with two separate pockets".
This is really so useful and practical!!!
If you like to go ouside for a nice walk, surely this Happy Walking Double Zipper Case is perfect for you!
Whether you decide to go out for a walk or just to the grocery store, you know how bulky your big bag could be...
This small but roomy, lightweight and beautiful case can hold everything you need without hindering your walk.
It has 2 zippers, each for a different pocket to keep for example keys separated by phone or by money , cards...

You can find it HERE.




Last, but not least, this is my new "Little Forest" PDF Sewing Pattern Pouch.
It's perfect for hold your cell.phone or camera as it's really well paddedd but it's also perfect for hold your keys, money, lipstick , cards, tissues or anything else you need to protect!
