mother hen and her family
April 17, 2011| At church this morning, one of the ladies decorated the Palm Sunday brunch table with THIS adorable doily! | 
| Doesn't this make you smile? | 
| SO CUTE! | 
| Help! I'm looking for the pattern! | 
I have searched the internet but can't find a resource 
for this crochet pattern.  
Can anyone help?  
I'm putting it on Ravelry too. 
| I need one of these! | 
| The chicks are stuffed with batt from an opening underneath the doily. | 
| Mother is stuffed plump, then she can rest an egg in her feathers. | 
| The batt comes out easily and then washed and stored till next time. |

Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI might take a leap and try to recreate it for next spring. Do you mind if I'll save a couple of your photos to my comp? -;)
I was hoping someone with crochet skills could re-create this. Let me know how it's going! Yes, you may use all the pictures for anything.
ReplyDeleteNo luck for me either, but I did find these:

(imagine serving a plate of your swan pastries on that!)
Thank you knitpicky! I went to both sites and loved perusing through. The swans are lovely and the pattern was free, how very nice. I need more time to craft.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who made something similar to this with daffodils, so I am finding out if she knows this pattern.
