One finished, finally. I have trim for three more{one lime and two dark rose} just have to sew up the pillow cases. I am using some Kaffe Fassett Fun Fabrics and this crochet cotton is in a lime green, using a size H hook. I have purchased three fantastic reference books now that I am very happy with.
The one pictured I used for this trim #20, I would feel comfortable recommending this book, there are over 300 trims with a variety from simple to more advanced. I'll show the other books when I do something out of them. So far I did two trims the same design with lime and two trims the same with rose, hope to get them done and show this weekend. I used a hoffman pattern I got off their web site a long time ago and instead of the accent piece is calls for I used the crochet trim and just stitched it on with the sewing machine, easy peasy. Very fun!

Looks lovely....also looks great on doilys :) Pretty pillowcase too :) hugs Vicki
what is the name of the book for the trim. Your case is beautiful! I love the colors.
The book name is The COmplete Book of Crochet Borders by Linda Schapper. It's really a great reference book for your library, I think I picked this one up at JoAnn's.
