Crochet Wall Art


My Grandmother on my Father's side of the family was a quilter and an excellent one at that.  She did on occasion crochet.  She would crochet potholders and hotpads.  The pink and white one shown is the one she made.  I always found them to be interesting because of the circles within circles. 

I sat down last night and thought it would be interesting if I could make yarn out of bed sheets or yarn from worn out jeans and come up with a similar design to hang on the wall.  The top sample in the picture is the one I hooked last night to see if I could come up with a contemporary design that would be suitable to hang on the wall.  I think this will work.  

Now to decide on colors and a border to make it pop. What would be your color choices? 

I am back to crocheting and will be working on the vintage mitten pattern.  Hopefully, I can end my week and finish the mitten pattern and list on Etsy.  

Have a great day,

Debra
