WITH CHEERS.... STARTING MY FIRST BLOG POST IN 2016

     Hello my dear friends... how are you all... Its been a YEAR..... lots of happenings..... lots  to post.... but again its because of my laziness i missed to meet all of you through this beautiful media.... 
     Many times i signed in to post something... but i'll stop... as  i feel  "I should post the best one to start again" but that's the  big blunder I have made.... Now i realised that 

                         "start with what you have.... 

                                     do it regularly.... 

                                           that will lead to your destiny". 

    I don't want to leave my blog.... i wish to continue forever..... so.... In this enthusiastic and cheerful mood i'm posting these pictures..... Take a look on my post and support me as before with your valuable comments.... 

     This is the crochet frock set i made for my brother's cutie.... pattern is from here

     And here are some of my mehendi designs..... from simple one to bridal.... 

With cheers and love

COMMING BACK WITH A SIMPLE CROCHET STOOL COVER... MY 150th POST

Hello my dear friends.....

     This is really nervous for me coz.... It's more than a year.... really this is a very long gap... yes... but some works kept me busy... we constructed our new home last year with our shop in ground floor and home in first floor.... for me the stress after finishing works is more than the stress during construction.. I'm really suffering a lot to manage everything without my mother-in-law.... still learning many things... in the mean time i felt i should start sparing time for my blog... i should win my laziness (bit more).. so here is my first post in this year....

     I thought i should do a fabulous work for my come back... but that only prolonged my days.... so i made it simple... it's a crochet granny square stool... Take a look on this....  as usual i need all your support friends..... 

see you soon with another post..

With love and care....

CROCHET BLANKET STITCH BOTTLE POUCH

Hi friends....
     Hwz the rainy season... i feel cold and sleepy... but what to do... have so many works. So in order to keep me awake i have to spend some time for myself in  interesting way. Is there any thing interesting than crocheting? 
     This week i learnt the blanket stitch... from here i made a sample piece and turned that into a bottle pouch.... see how that is....

I liked the handle part very much :) 

It needs slim bottle so for the sake of picturing i put a torch light in it... i think in future it will become a flower vase hanger :)

CROCHET WALL HANGING WITH FLOWERS AND BASKET WEAVE STITCH

Hello......
     Again i left a long gap.... Last time i told about the doily.... as i'm working the doily in woolen yarn there is some problem in finishing it.... but I've crocheted a wall hanging for PASSIONATE ABOUT CROCHET'S September CAL. The CAL is a wall hanging with five different flowers and basket weave stitch is a must.... see how i tried... but in a hurry my writing part is an utter flop. And now busy in GRANNY SQUARE CHARITY BLANKET  and the October CAL in the same Facebook page....

CROCHET DRAW STRING PURSE

Hello friends.....
       Here are some draw string purses which i made when i was in hospital with my athai [mom-in-law]. Actually i started doing this for Doctor's grandma... She often forget to take medicines in time. So i said i will do a draw string purse which she can keep the medicines all the time in her hip. She happily accepted. After seeing one purse doctor herself asked for some more string purses.Of course they brought it with a good pay. Here are the pictures. Actually its very simple we can do it with in an hour. I'll try to put the pattern soon.

I think you liked these purses...
will see you in my next post.....
take care
