DeSoto County Fair Blue Ribbon Winner!

I couldn't be any more proud of my crochet than I am right now!  Edgar & Alan (The Frog Brothers) have won Blue Ribbons at our county fair!

A friend has an amazing daughter in 4-H and she was showing rabbits...she won Grand Champion and more with her rabbits.  (I have not been to the fair yet, so this is Facebook Fair stuff lol) I commented congratulations and my friend responded with a photo of my green giants with BLUE RIBBONS!!!!!  I was so excited I cried lol

Yes, I am proud

After the fair is over Edgar & Alan will be available in my Etsy shop :)

Well, I guess that means that when I get the chance to type I will need pattern testers! I currently have a special bear pattern in the works that will need more eyes on it and the Frogs will be coming soon.  I need crocheters to check my patterns for errors before I offer them to the public.  I would like a turn around time of a week with any corrections you find :)  If you are interested please contact me and I will put you on a list.  Pattern will be free for testers on the bear and frog.  After The patterns have been tested they will be available on Etsy.

A rabbit in a waistcoat!

Oh my goodness he is such a cutie!  I will be typing this pattern up over the next couple of days and will need crochet pattern testers to try my Wonderland inspired white rabbit pattern for free before anyone else!  Contact me for more info!

UPDATE: I am no longer looking for pattern testers for this pattern, but if you are interested in trying out my crochet patterns before they are available to the public, for FREE, please contact me

New Wonderland Pattern....in the works!

Confession: I love in Alice in Wonderland.

The pattern I am writing is an extension of that love, and definitely an little tricky so far.  I will be needing some pattern testers to try out this pattern as well.  The pattern will be free for the testers, but I will need feedback on this one! If you are interested in trying it when I am finished writing it up please contact me and I will send you a pdf copy.  (American crochet terms)

The beginning of a trip down the rabbit hole...

Buddha Bears

I tend to make at least one extra item from every pattern I write...this time I made two more!

Behold a pack of Buddha Bears!

Strawbeary (sold), Sherbet, and Mint (sold)







A photographer friend requested the green bear, with a green newborn hat that has bear ears.  My 16yo daughter fell in love with the green bear and asked for one in pink...sure! But of course I couldn't stop there...So today Sherbet the Buddha Bear is making a cyber trip to the Etsy shop!

I am still hoping to find volunteers to try out the pattern before I post it online.  If you love crochet and want to give a go at making one of these cute little bears please contact me for a free PDF copy!  I need more crazy crocheters to give me feedback!
Thank you!

First Blog Post: Pattern testers wanted!

Welcome to my very first blog post for Mommy Made Crochet!

I want to welcome any and all visitors to come by often and see what is on my hook!

As the title implies I am looking for testers for a new crochet pattern.  How can you be a tester you ask?  The process is simple and painless, just send me a message saying you are interested! I need feedback when I write new patterns; an extra set of eyes to be sure I wrote everything up right.  All I require in return is some feedback, totally painless. 

Here is a picture of what you will be making

 

This little guy is advanced beginner level crochet.  The pattern is written using American crochet terms and has a few pictures to help you along the way.  The file will be in pdf format.


Be sure to like Mommy Made Crochet on Facebook, and swing by my Etsy Shop and take a look around!

Thank you!
