This is my new pattern of a pillow cover published on Ravelry yesterday. This crocheted Dahlia decoration for pillow cover consists of 9 square motifs made in Overlay crochet technique. If you use other colour palette for this pattern, your pillow cover will look completely different, and unique. Many Popcorn stitches used in this pattern give the whole design nice volume and structure. This square motif can be also used for blankets, bags or just as an appliqué for clothes, curtains and so on. The motif is very thick as it has two layers due to large amount of overlay stitches. So if you decide to crochet a double sided pillow cover – you will not even have to buy or sew a fabric pillow case.

This is a pattern of pillow cover which I called “Lucky Quatrefoil”. Pillow cover consists of square motifs crocheted in the Overlay Crochet technique. They remind me of quatrefoils which are famous for bringing good luck to people. But at the same time they look like small butterflies as well. The square motif can not only become a part of pillow decoration, but you can also crochet a blanket or a bag with it or just use it as an appliqué for clothes. This easy to follow pattern of a square motif (10 pages) is written for one size. It contains step by step full written instructions in English using standard crochet abbreviations and US terms (stitch guide is given in the pattern). It also contains lots of pictures explaining all the tricky and difficult places and how the motifs are joined. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lucky-quatrefoil-pillowcase

Crocheting in the Round with a Problem
Jessica Northcutt-Swain posted a topic in General Crochet Help
I am crocheting a motif wrap with some fingering yarn my mom gave me. It's all different "sizes" and 'textures", but it works for a motif collage that I'm doing. My question is: I am to crochet a chain of 4 and place 19 DC into the fourth chain and then join. When I am finished with that part, I always work my hook into the wrong side of the piece and do a chain one with the tail to secure everything. I pull tightly and I end up tearing the work apart from the inside out. This has NEVER happened before and I always start the weaving process in this manner to help secure ends. It doesn't come apart from the tail, but rather from somewhere else and completely unworks itself. What am I doing wrong and what could I do to reinforce the motifs I have already made so that doesn't happen again??? Any answers would be exceptionally helpful, as I only have until the end of the month to finish for a birthday present. Thanks. -
This project had been sitting dormant for about 8 years, and I finally got it done. More about this crochet adventure here.

Has anybody seen the source for this old bedspread pattern? http://www.pinterest.com/pin/369928556866103408/ It's rolling around in my brain, but I just can't make it stay still and catch it LOL I think in the picture on the pattern, it looked more square than here where it looks almost like an octagon. TIA!

Hello Everyone- Been a bit since I've posted anything. But recently I got some lime and purple thread and I've had fun making all kinds of things. Since there was a variety of items I posted this here. Hope that is the correct spot! Enjoy! The first is a coaster; second: small motifs that will be made into earrings; third: a doily; fourth: a small motif that I really like (not sure what I will do with it so left a long string); and fifth: I was trying to show you the crochet part of a necklace that I made. Not a great picture. Sorry. The earring motifs and the not-sure-what-I'll-do-with-it motif are from 201 Crochet Motifs, blocks, projects and ideas by Melody Griffiths. The rest are from the Ultimate Guide to Thread Crochet by Leisure Arts.

For a charity raffle, it had to be something eye catching. It is on the cover of "50 Sensational Crochet Afghans & Throws." I changed the color scheme just a little, and the outline stitch, and added a border from Jean Leinhauser.

I love color. That is what draws me first. This is a pretty easy and effective motif for any granny square project that does not require huge blocks. The yarn, with its variations, just makes it lovely. You will find the pattern for the motif here: http://craftybegonia.blogspot.com/2011/09/plum-pudding-motif.html Enjoy! Clotilde

My other 2011 North Carolina State Fair afghan motif
crochetbug13 posted a topic in Squares and Motifs
This project is starting to develop a mind of its own and get away from me. Oh, well, I supposed I just need to "Obey the Hook" and submit to it's greater wisdom. You can read about my struggles to stay on point here. -

The crochet-a-long continues. This one came out better than I thought it would. The texture really seems to pop. http://www.crochetbug.com/if-mondrian-joined-a-crochet-a-long/

I am trying not get get further behind in this crochet-a-long, so here is my effort for this week. I really like it turned this way as it highlights a design element that is not as apparent when it is turned 45º.

Among my myriad projects, is Tracy St. John's groovyghan. While it has not quite reached the point that I would call it the new Babette, it is trending in that direction. Yesterday, after more than a week away from this project due to getting ready for and having house guests, along with working on a super top secret project for my mother's birthday, I finally got back to it and made modest, but measurable progress with this flower motif which I have written about here.
