Free Pattern: Vintage-look Summer Bonnet

I love this sweet Easter bonnet for a photo prop, or it would be beautiful in white for a christening bonnet.

I used a stitch from The Crochet Stitch Bible - all credit to them for the stitch.  I will try to explain it the best I can, but I will not do a diagram because it would just be copying the book.  If you want further help, the book is easy to find on amazon.

This is a newborn size (doll pictured has a head circumference of 14"), but it would be easy to adjust for bigger sizes.  Just add 10 to the foundation sc and add a row at the end for each size up - so for 3 months, 72 and 11 rows; for 6 months, 82 and 12 rows, etc.  That would be my guess anyway.

Happy Easter

I hope you all enjoyed the makes from our AMAZING Design Team this week.  I just had to make an Easter card too!

As with every single holiday it seems that it just sneaks up on you and there is never enough time to make all the cards that you want.  Especially when teaching.  Most likely this is the last Easter card I will make this year.  Oh, well...  there is always next year, right?  :-)

For this card I used our Easter Marci (love her!).  Marci's dress and a hat band are paper pieced.  You can buy this Marci stamp in our online store, click HERE.

This card measures 6" x 6".

Colored with Copics:
Skin - E00, E01, E11, E13, BV02
Blush - R20
Hair - E51, E53, E55
Hat, Shoes - E81, E84
Basket - E41, E42, E43

Hugs!!
