Little Miss Daisy


Hi Loves, 

So, I've been feeling inspired to take my creativity to a new level and experiment with designing more than just the usual bags and hats. Recently, a family member asked me to make some swimwear for them and I couldn't have been more excited! They gave me free rein to do whatever I wanted, as long as it's high-waisted. Can't wait to see how it turns out!

She sent the yarn for me to choose my colour combo. I selected the Lion Brand 24/7 cotton with white as the main colour and the lovely terracotta as the accent colour.  My cousin and I are almost the same size and measurement so with her not here for her measurements to be taken, I used my own.  

I haven't received her pictures yet, but she was really happy with the finished product. I named the bikini set "Little Miss Daisy" because it looked too plain after making the shorts and bralette. That's when I decided to add the little flower details, which made a huge difference. What do you think?

Butterfly Prom Dress (Part 2)

 

Hi Loves, 

As promised, this post will be showing the progress photos of my daughter's prom dress.











It's finally finished. 

Unfortunately, she is smaller than the mannequin so didn't want to stretch it out after adding the finishing touches.  Don't worry though the final post will be showing her in the dress going off to her Prom.


Until the next post...

And Blazing

 Hi Loves, 

No bikini would be completed with just the bottom, right?  Therefore naturally, a top was needed, having this knowledge I ensure it got its mate.  This was an original design and suited my bikini bottom quite well.  Don't you think?


The final design.   

Working out the details as I go.

And.... It kept on Blazing

 Hi Loves, 

With the fire lit and continually blazing, another bikini was on the needle in no time.  This one was also a modified version of yet another Shyler Crochet's Designs.  This time I modified her Crochet High Rise Bikini Bottom.  Her version was a thong but I decided on making mine cheeky.  Do you like this version as well?

Summer All Year Round

 Hi loves, 


After the beanie/slouchy spree the paradigm was switched completely.  It started when I received a call from my aunt who taught me how to crochet. I was so excited I didn't even listen to what she was saying, I just told her "Give me 30 minutes and I'll be by your house".  When I got there she was on her phone talking, I heard someone else's voice and tried asking if it was her daughter but she was busy chatting away.  To my surprise, I saw a figure step into the room and it was that of my cousin I haven't seen in over 5 years (she lives abroad).  We had our greeting, and then she asked if I had a swimsuit she could purchase.

I replied yes, showed her the picture then informed her I would return home to retrieve it so it can be fitted.  

 

I took the bikini to her, the bottom was perfect but the bra cup was no match for her DDD (man I didn't see or guessed that from the outfit she had on).  I decided to make a completely different bikini for her.  This was Wednesday and she needed it for the weekend.  Short notice right she thought... But ya girl loves a challenge.  I went home and decided on what color and yarn to use as she was open to "whatever".  Before the night was done I completed one bra cup but decided to take that for a fitting, as your girl has never made any bralette for that size before.

With cup #1 completed and fitting perfectly, I did cup #2, finish the top, then on to the bikini bottom.  Time was not my friend that week as though I was done with the top in a matter of hours, the entire bikini had me thinking I would not meet the deadline.  I am happy to report that, not only did I make the deadline but it fitted her perfectly and was instantly loved.

Cup finish.     


After completing the bikini, I had no time to get any pic as it was already night.  It was delivered and in the morning a notification came in.  My IG page was instantly lit.
