Crowing – Eva’s Tulips are this Monday’s offering…
Tulips
Tulips
& more Tulips
I love tulips…
A few years back I bought a few
Eva Rosenstands
tulip kits.
At the time I had grand plans of knocking out some little placemats for Easter…
I didn’t.
Thanks to our recent house move, I
rediscovered
my little kits.
It turns out I had sewn one of the kits, but done nothing with the other three.
(hmmm)
Well, I have
finally
sewn another one.
(woohoo)
…AND not only that,
I have actually made two placemats.
(Thanks to my recent purchase of a Tailor’s Awl).
No need for
blanket stitch
when you have a Tailor’s Awl.
(yipee)
‘Awl’ you have to do is
poke holes in your fabric
as you crochet.
(Brilliant!)
Eva’s Tulips
all ready for Easter.
(well two of them at least)

Really beautiful
House moves are great for finding a few things you forgot you had!
Beautiful place mats – are you going to do a few more?
Love them, so pretty for Easter.
I think they are beautiful! Hope you are getting settled in at your new place. Moving has it pros and cons (too much work but fun finding things put away).
I have put the two extra kits out to do so with any luck I will remember to do them sometime before the end of the year (maybe) 😀
xxh
Thank you all for your lovely comments!
Love this work!
the combination of crochet and cross stitch is perfect!!
Like all your work!
Gorgeous 🙂 it makes me miss cross stitch too… but now I’m on a crochet whim and have tons of yarn laying around! Plus I need to move too–can’t find my box of cross stitch threads lol
I think they are beautiful, we should awl have an awl!
