Flash back - Jar cosies!

I thought I'd start sharing some things I've made that aren't to do with my mood blanket. First off, my jar cosies!



I made these for my Mum's birthday in Sept '13 and she loved them! I think these are one of my proudest makes, as she really enjoys using them :) I saw some gorgeous patterns in issue 8 of Simply Crochet, I altered them a bit, and then made up my own pattern for the last  two. 




These ones I sold to the lovely @withlovevictoria in Nov '13. At the time I didn't think my makes we're sale worthy, but Toria convinced me otherwise :) thank you honey, you don't even know what you've started for me! I made up the patterns for all of these.



Finally, these were a Christmas gift for some close family friends, I didn't actually finish them till this Jan '14!  I think over all the one at the front is my fav cosy. All three patterns were designed by me :)

So what do you think? I'm thinking of selling some of these patterns, would you be interested? I will be popping up another post with some more of my makes soon.

    1. How silly of me! I can't believe I forgot to pop that in! It's issue eight. There's some lovely makes in there which would be perfect for a wedding, four different jar cosies, one of which is a hanging one. There's also some gorgeous doilies and napkin rings. Hope that helps! xxx
