    I make motifs between projects. Then I have some ready when I want to make a sweater or top. I also do that so it breaks up what I’m doing (change of hook, yarn, posture is good to prevent repetitive stress injuries). I do that with granny squares and hexagons. I also do some to try out new yarn. They’re great when you want a granny square blanket quick. Do a bright or dark row on the “baby colored flower) that will add a non-baby feel to it. A little background in a color that you’re not already using, or you only have a little of it already might tie it all together. If you use a dark green, or grass green it might be striking ( just a inch or so between groups or large flowers). You could also use green leaves placed here and there to break up the flowers. Just an idea. Your top is great. These are just ideas.

    Jenna, I think it came out so cute! It was worth all your hard work. I'm thinking at a later date you could add on and turn it into a 70's mini dress! Your videos are so much fun! I have to tell you, My granddaughter, when she was around 10 or 11 (she's now 24) wanted a flower hat. I was deep into doing hat's at that point but never made a flower. I bought books on how to make flowers , watched videos, and made at least 40 flowers to put on the hat. The hat was getting heavy and heavier, then I got really into this flower hat and added butterflies, a frog, ladybug and the list goes on. Of course I thought it was a masterpiece. She said she loved it but I'm sure the child never wore it out of the house. I told her, when she was older I was going to put in on EBay and make a fortune of of it!

  • @merrim7765
    @merrim7765 Рік тому +1

    I think you are being very hard on yourself. You are so creative. You are working alone -- that can start a lot of negative self-talk and judging yourself. Good thing to take more bike rides and plan some coffee dates for conversation with REAL people. 🥰 The creative process is not about how long it takes. If it's toilsome, -- stop -- do something else. The time it takes to finish is irrelevant unless it's something like a wedding gown and it's promised by a certain date. Otherwise, enjoy putting your projects together and picking up on the inspired ideas coming to you. Is your goal is to have something that's incredible or something that's efficiently completed in X number of hours? Your top: GORGEOUS! When people see it, they will love it as much as you do and ask, What do you want for it? Tell them it took 70 hours to make and I won't take less than (at least) $400. (That's low.) Your work is awesome!

      Remember, first time artists are in the process of creating along with you. You are doing MORE than just making flowers, baby!
      You are designing beauty!
      I can imagine you doing a lovely full length wedding gown of ivory flowers, made of a lace-weight crochet yarn, with very small pastel colorful centers.
      And a very long sheer veil with several 🦋 dainty butterflies attached randomly!
      Ahh, such a fashion statement you would make...!

      "Jenna P!"

    Looks good, but some advice from someone who is crocheting for over 20 years now, with patterns like this (a lot structure and cluster stiches) it is good to try to make decrease and increase to fit body more, yarn will eventually stretch and straight structure with top will wave after a while on the edges
