🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉


The Watermelon Slice Hot Pad/ Pot Holder
 Crochet Pattern Is Our Friday Fun Day Crochet
 project of the week.
With this Crochet Pattern you make it a full slice
 or half slice of watermelon.

This such a fan and summery crochet Pattern.
 perfect for all your summer parties and picnics. 
You can use them as actual hot pads and pot holders, 
or make up a bunch for decorations.


I designed them using Peaches And Creme
 cotton yarn.
Please Note, If you are going to use them s hot pads,
 and pot holders, on hot items, please make them
 with cotton yarn, as acrylic yarn can melt and burn
 your surfaces, as well as, your hands.

Big O Mesh Laundry Bag Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 Big O Mesh Laundry Bag
Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs




This Big O Laundry Bag Is Our 
Scrap Happy Project Of The month.


The Big O Mesh Laundry Bag was a request from
 another Crochet friend. She wanted a laundry 
bag for one of her kids to take to summer camp.
 She loved it and her child loves it so much, 
They are taking it to college, as well.

I called It The "Big O" Laundry Bag because it measures
20 inches tall X 23 Inches around, and is very 
stretchy even thought it is designed using cotton yarns. 
The Mesh Crochet Stitch gives it room to "breath",
 ya know laundry can get smelly sometimes. 



It is stitched holding 2 strands of medium (4) 
weight cotton yarn, so it works up super quick.
This Bag can be used for lots of different things, 
besides laundry, take it to the beach or pool. Store 
your wet towels and clothes for the trip back home.
Maybe just put everyone's beach or pool toys, 
and flip flops in it.
Toss it into the washer along with all the wet clothes.
And you will be ready for the next pool,
 beach, play day!

 FRIDAY FUN DAY!
 Tomato Pin Cushion Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach Of Posh Pooch Designs

🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅


It's Friday Fun Day!
And The Tomato Pin Cushion Is A
 Perfect Pattern For Today.

Aren't these pin cushions the cutes thing!
They measure 4 X 5 inches.
They also make fun play food for the kids, 
but leave out the pins and needles!


I have been doing a lot of sewing lately and 
It reminded me of the tomato pin cushion I used have
 in my high school sewing class.
I Loved that thing and decided to crochet one.
I Love it!
I sure hope you do as well.

It's super cute, super fun to stitch up and super useful!
Just because Tomatoes are usually  red,
does not mean you have to make them red. 
Get in your yarn stash and make them any colors
 you like.
Have some fun and be creative.
