Strawberry Necklace



Oxnard is a major producer of strawberries and every year we have a Strawberry Festival, this year it is on the weekend of May 18th and 19th, 2013. So I made this necklace, crocheted and beaded strawberries, crocheted blossoms on a #3 red thread.

Dino-Mite!



A dinosaur t-shirt for a little guy.

Flowered Jacket and Baby Overalls






I love to crochet flowers and really couldn't stop. I actually had to take a bunch off of the jacket and had more than enough left over for the overalls. A garden of delights!

Two Sea Friends



This little whale and crab were both improvised by me, I added a sailor hat to the whale and maybe I'll add a crown to the crab like my niece did, or maybe a sand pail and shovel, she needs something.

Solar System Toddler Jacket




I crocheted all the planets and a star and comet for the front. No, there's no Pluto, but the dwarf planets would be too small to crochet anyway.

Dolphin and Dolphin Toddler T-shirt




I made this dolphin from a pattern by Sonja Hood (Crochet Magazine July 2010) and then improvised this t-shirt applique'. Cute pair!
