The Crafted With Love organization donates 100% of its profits to non-profit animal organizations. Of course I just had to donate some of my crochet. So, take a look around, especially at the flower hair pin and Grammy’s Watermelon Tropical Flower Brooch. Also, I’ll be directing customers who are interested in my Grammy’s Watermelon Tropical Flower Brooch in my etsy store to kindly purchase the ones at Crafted with Love.
In the normal course of things, C is for cat. For the month of August, however, FAST members have been challenged to create fiber art items with a “Celestial” theme. So, for the month of August, “C is for Celestial!” Take a look!
I wrote my first article at the Art & Craft Co-Op on the Art of Crochet. Take a look.
Here is a similar bag as the custom one I just posted. The hat and flower was inspired by the purse – the brim of the hat is Tunisian! This one is made with a mohair blend yarn that I love. Too bad I can’t get anymore of it. It has a nice feel, nice thickness, and great color. I call it the Oh So Mauve Set.
This was my first custom order and I enjoyed the design process. The very nice customer had size (approximate size of purse and handle length) and color (to match the Red Accent Tulucia Machika Cloche she purchased) specifications, which I designed around. I had just purchased small d rings and clips when I went to Japan in May and I was so happy when it worked with the project so nicely. I crocheted the purse in Tunisian. I like the design so much that I created another similar one, which I will post up soon.
Everyone is talking about it and many are waiting for their invite. Well, I just got mine invite from Rivalry today and signed up right away. I’m still navigating through the site. Just being in a community of other crocheters (and knitters) has made my day already! My username is TANTALIZING so add me as your friend.
I made this matching ribbon cloche right after I finished putting together obaasama’s ribbon vest but I just never posted it. I’ll be posting a pattern for it soon (I hope). I just sold it in my etsy store (I originally designed the In Bloom Flower for this hat.)
Michele of mvegan5 created an EFA Treasury and it currently includes my Blue Tulucia Machika Cloche. In celebration, Tantalizing Stitches will donate 50% of all crochet sales (instead of the usual 15%) during the duration of the treasury. Just mention the EFA treasury during checkout.
Tantalizingstitches.com is now online and ready for business! In celebration of its grand opening, Tantalizing Stitches is giving away a matching crocheted flower with the first ten leis purchased.
In addition, 15% of all crochet sales are donated to help the puppies.
Custom orders are welcomed.
