Crochet Trim Pillow Cases






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!

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.
