Spring Shells Baby Blanket Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 Spring Shells Baby Blanket 
Crochet Pattern 


The Spring Shells Baby Blanket is designed
 using open Shell Stitches.
It's perfect for Spring, it is light and
 airy but not too light.




Although I designed this blanket as a
 baby blanket it is very easy to
 adjust the length and width in order
 to make it any size you want.
It is a very easy 2 row repeat,
 and makes a great take along project.


I designed the blanket using Redheart 
Supersaver Stripes yarn in the Cool 
Stripe colorway. It is a beautiful yarn with
 shades of blue and green gradient shades.
 It reminds me of the meadow with a stream
 running through it. I think the Cool Stripe color
 is exactly the perfect name for the colors.


This blanket would also be lovely stitched
 up with any of the other Ombre and
 stripe colorways.

Rainbow Cloud Ornament Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

Rainbow Cloud Ornament 
Crochet Pattern 


The March Ornament of The Month 
is The Rainbow Cloud Ornament.



It is a stuffed cloud with a rainbow fringe
 hanging below the cloud. The Hanger is beaded
 with pony beads of different colors to match
 the rainbow. I added a cute face to the 
cloud to make it a happy cloud.

I Love it and think it is a cute and adorable.
It is perfect for a bright Christmas ornament
or decorations, also nice for a baby room,
 playroom or classroom.

I thought the Rainbow Cloud was fitting for
 this month because March seems to be a 
combination of rain and sunshine.


This sweet little pic is my inspiration 
for this month's ornament.


And remember you can use whatever colors
 you like, like pastels, or ombres.
Just have fun.

The "Quick" Tote Bag Crochet Pattern And Video By Sara Sach

 The "Quick" Tote Bag
 Crochet Pattern And Video
 By Sara Sach Of Sara Sach Crochet
Formerly Posh Pooch Designs


The Quick Tote Bag is designed using a 20 ounce 
Nestle Quick container, and it is super quick 
to stitch up. So, I  called It The "Quick Tote Bag".


My husband was making himself some 
chocolate milk, his favorite drink of choice, 
And finished the last of the Quick milk powder.
 He asked if I wanted the container.
I immediately said yes, and the idea to
 make a small tote bag with it came to my mind.

The book rings to hold the lid onto the 
container is optional. You do not even have 
to use the lid. Although I really like the
 lid for keeping things safe and dry inside.
I attached 2 book rings I purchased at Walmart.
I found them by the paper clips.
I just "drilled" small holes with my 
small had drill and slid the rings on.


The container measures 6.5 inches tall
 X 15 inches around and 2.5 inches deep. 
I think it's perfect size for everyday use, as well as, 
a great trip bag. It will fit your phone, wallet, and
still have room for your keys and lipstick.

Please note, you do not have to use the quick
 container, that bag will still work great without it.
