かぎ針ケース Crochet Needle Case

何年も前にかぎ針のケースを作ろうと思い立ち、表のブロックを接ぎ、内側も作っていたのに、放ったらかしにしていたものがありました。そのままにしておくよりもと思い、仕立てました。

I've finished my very old UFO. Many years ago I planned to make a crochet needle case, pieced the front block and finished the inside, but left it.



表側の右端に小さな方眼編みのポケットを付けました。折り込んだところです。



そのままひっくり返した表です。




一応でき上がりはこんなふうです。



実はクレージーキルトを始めてまもない頃の昔、こんな壁かけを作ったことがあります。2003年の刺繍があります。このときのプリントの残りを整理するつもりで接いだのですから、何年かかって終わらせたか、我ながらあきれます。

I started this project to use up the left-overs of following wall hanging. Can you see my stiching of 2003? Now you know how many years have passed away by now.

Hideko,
As usual it is so beautiful. So sad it was an ufo, but now it is a beauty.

I love your crochet hook holder! As always, your stitching is beautiful. But I am really excited about the idea you just gave me, because I need a holder for my crochet hooks. I am going to piece a block to take to the CQ Adventure next month to stitch on! Hugs, Cathy

Hideko,

I am thinking of you and hoping that you have only been lightly touched, if touched at all, by the earthquake and tsunami.

Your work and your words have been a joy to me, especially in difficult times.

I hope you'll be able to post again soon.

Thanks to all for your kind thoughts. Anyway my family and I are safe, while I am concerning many friends and relatives who might be in worse situations. Our communication tools are very limited now so there are lots of people we can't get in touch.

Kathy Raker said...

I'm glad you and your family are safe. Praying for all those affected by the earthquake and tsunami.
