Aww thank you! :blush: Early on in this thread, someone mentioned how when they get on Pinterest or TikTok, Julie’s Wreaths is thrown at them. I’m a victim myself. Haha. But she does make some beautiful wreaths.

Alert a really long rambling story

So about a week ago I went to a birthday party for a one year old girl. Her parents decided she was the caboose she is #6 of 6 girls. For the 3rd or 4 girl I made her parents (my heart string children) a crocheted baby blanket on a whim I believe it was 2019 I used a 3d flower pattern I learned just for this. I then joined them with green yarn for the stems. I never made her anything else because no matter how many nice things bling and I made I have never seen any of her children wear use or even pictures of the things. Bling crossstitched a Noah’ s Arc quilt it took three months to make she worked on it every day for several hours and 6 each Sunday it was so detailed it was ridiculous. I was dumbfounded she got it done so quick.

Anyway when I walked in she had the blanket on the display “a field of flowers” is what I named it because the blanket is my pattern.

here it is I would love your honest opinion on it.

I understand why they dont use them. They are heirloom pieces. But I would absolutely immortalize them in pics!
My honest opinion is wow!
That is very beautiful!
What an amazing gift.
I tried to crochet a coaster a few weeks ago. Epic failure. I wish I had your talent.

It’s beautiful Flour. I agree with cartr1. The parents are probably putting them away with the baby books and other mementos. I’ve got the baby blanket and the santa outfit my grandma crocheted for me. They’re too special to use for more than photos.

I make everything from earrings to painted rocks to whipped body butter to clay pickles that go on magnets & hair clips… I get bored easily so I switch it up whenever I’m feeling antsy. There’s lots more but I already feel like a picture ■■■■ posting this many!

Thank you! I’m focusing on the earrings for now. I have lobster shapes that I ordered, some way copper & turquoise colored skulls.. I have silicone beaded keychains that I need to get started on…

You all are super supportive! I love you so much! :heart:

Honest opinion? I think it’s FABULOUS!! Anyone that receives that as a gift should be honored! Your talent is amazing! :star_struck: I agree with others they could be tucking your pieces away because they are super special to them. Hold your head high because you deserve to! :hugs:

Thank you everyone I appreciate the good vibes and wonderful comments it was a labor of love. I can’t remember how many flowers are in it but I had like 20 leftover and always thought I would make a pillow cover but lost interest after I struggled with that blanket for what I felt was to long. But I thought I would like one so I was proud of it and I noticed that time made it look nicer to my minds eye
