Appliques for Baby Items

I wanted to post the scarfs I made last week, but I have yet to come up with better photos...meanwhile,
I dont know why I'm making these baby appliques, but its cute, and its fun. I was going to send some mittens ordered from me for a baby boy, and all I had was the flower applique, so I had to make something else... This is what I came up with:

Crocheted Snowflakes by Chie


I've come to know Chie from crochetville forum and from her blog, and lately from exchanging notes with her. I admire her for her charm and eye for beauty.

I am not really fond of christmas trees except when I was a child, and when my children were small. But that was several years ago and now I never thought of it again, until I saw Chie's beautiful christmas tree! It is such a delight to look at the different designs of her handmade snowflakes. With these lovely and varied designs one doesnt need a lot of other decorations.
