Hearts, Roosters and Flowers, oh my!

Whatyathink?  I like it.  My favorite part of the whole thing is the vintage spool dangling at the bottom. 
For the heart I crocheted a granny square than filled the two sides with triple crochets to form the heart.  I made two of these and then crocheted them together. 
The spool of thread came out of my grandma's sewing box.  I have a couple more picked out to do some more of these.

So there you have it!  I just love these roosters, and the hearts look so cute with them.  I would like to make more, but have been finding it hard to get going. There is so much going on in my little world right now.  My mother-in-law is not doing well at all, and it's been so tough on my husband making decisions no one wants to make.  I think it will be a while before things return to normal. 

I am working on a pretty little cowl that is pretty close to being finished.  I am hoping to get some pictures to post of it this weekend.
Hoping everyone is having a great week!

    Your hangers are fabulous! I love how you put so many things together for that vintage look. Your roosters are to dye for!

  2. Fabulous with a sweet touch of folk art feel to them. The spool of thread at the end is the icing on the cake for me.
