Crocheted WINDOWS - White On White - Christening Blanket






 In 2009, I added crocheted "Window" blanket to my Crude Company etsy shop. A pattern I learned form my Mother during a visit to her house in Kansas. My Mother doesn't quite remember where she learned this pattern, only that she's been making and crocheting with this pattern for 50 years. At 72 years old she not only whips out this crochet technique but she also tats "sir names" in white and cream colors then frames them in shadow box frames for close friends and family.

The enjoyment of creating crochet items comes easy for her, and crocheting also helps her rebuild strength in her arms from her first radical mastectomy and the subsequent second surgery three years later. To date my Mother has had seven operations to remove cancer form her body. She has been a pillar of life force for me and a woman who inspires me daily.

I share this pattern with my etsy customers, please do not resale the pattern or items created with this pattern online.

California Beach Blanket - Gift Box Set - Window Tops




In this listing 24 gift boxes, a NEW "evv" gift box design .....see-through window, making these perfect for viewing your small treasure's.

Made from acid free archival card stock, hand cut acetate sheets and hand cut center inserts. Bright and sunny California beach blanket design.

These boxes like the others from "evv" are sturdy, strong and durable.

8 - 2 7/8"
8 - 3 5/8"
8 - 4 1/4"

This is a eco-friendly design and the construction is so simple. Each box has been meticulously folded, scored and center point glued with a shape to complete a ready made hand built box. The boxes are empty inside. But ready for your fine creative treasure's. Conveniently each box is left "un-marked" by ecovintagevegan, allowing you take claim for these small gifted wonders.

This American style of folding paper, yields from the turn of the century, where lady folk congregated to make and reproduce little boxes from post cards and birthday cards.

Certainly easy enough for everyone to assemble, but why? when I have done the work for you.
