Dress for my Mother in Law

Happy Birthday to my mother -in- law !!!

This "Serious Dress" I made it  for my mother in law. Soon is her  birthday and I thought it could be a great gift for her something crocheted. 

It is not the first time when I do it but I know that she likes almost all  what is handmade. 

I tried to mix the seriousness and the sensuality in a dress for many occasions.

The straight line and the color block of  the dress denote the depth , the demureness, office appropriate as well as chic

Sun ... Sun ... Sun ...

If you could know  how long time ago I wanted to show you that summer dress ... even I don't remember when I started and when I finished it.  

In France the spring/summer it is in late, though I couldn't find a day with a little bit of sun  for to make a shoot, but fortunately it happened a miracle and here we are my crochet dress for this summer. 

Yellow and grey a nice mix of colors for summer (and for me :D) . That's why  I waited   for a sunny day , to bring more radiance to this positive color.

My old little clutches ...

These two clutches I crocheted them after I finished "My First Crochet Dress" 

(the white one is made with the cotton that it remained from the dress)

I like them both a lot. I honestly say that I have a pleasure to take them with me every time I can mix them with my looks, and the biggest pleasure it is that they are made by myself and they are unique for me even  if they seem basic from others point of view. 

Black and White Monroe

White and Black will never die and always it will be a good choice.

I call this dress "Black and White Monroe"  because it remembers me that popular white dress of  Marilyn Monroe. I can't say that the model is really close to , but I feel me like an old star in. 

 This time I am really satisfied by my work  and I really hope that you like it too.

EARLY SPRING AND THE END OF WINTER WITH A WARM CROCHET DRESS

Today, when crochet is enjoying such unprecedented vogue, it is doubly interesting to delve into its past and discover that what once helped save a nation from starvation became the accomplishment of queens. By curious irony, though its history dates back to the sixteenth century, crochet only came into its own with the birth of the Machine Age and has been growing in popularity ever since. 

Fascinating and versatile, crochet has become one of our best-loved handcrafts. With hook and thread agile fingers are capable of producing an endless variety of beautiful modern and traditional designs, each with its own special charm.

Probably one of the loveliest crochet works it is a dress, from my point of view. All seasons and in almost all collections we will  see minimum one crochet dress.

Like all women I am in love with dresses and I have a pleasure to crochet them. This time I crocheted a dress for early spring and why not for winter. I don't like the cold temperature, that's why I prefer in this period of year to wear something warm. Don't mind that we see some skin in this

My First Crochet Dress

I've been so excited when I saw the result of that work : "My First Crochet Dress"I remember I was 12 or 13 when I took 3 classes of crocheting,just for fun, and after that I didn't think about at all . But after my baby arrived I had a little bit of time to remember about crocheting. I was bored during baby was sleeping and so I started to be busy each time she was sleeping and when I was watching TV. I don't have all the time of the world for this but when I have some spare time I like to waste it crocheting.
