I began making Crinoline Ladies a few years ago, then found out I was having Miss A.....and the Crinoline Crocheting began in full force. I had this idea to make each lady a quilt block, so I'd have sewn them to fabric and sewn a quilt. Well, 4 years later no quilt, but they are starched and going on Miss A's wall as a decoration. There are many more, some from patterns some I made up, like the ballerina. A good place to look for Crinoline Lady patterns is Crochet Memories. That's where I got started, plus I think crocheting with thread is a pleasure many haven't experienced. Its so delicate. Talk to you again soon, enjoy your weekend!!!!!
I've never seen anything like this before! I have tried crochet with thread and do love it for it's fine detailing... what a lovely idea for your little one's walls :)

ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I didn't use metallic on these but I have in the past.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long time we've talked, lost connections. Glad to have regroupd again with you, your crinolines are grogeous..I have made a circle doily with them from Crochet Memories as well..beautiful patterns. I prefer crocheting with thread, every once in a while I'll get the bug to do something in yarn...nice talking with you...(formerly crochet by the sea)
