Mom's birthday gift

It is always hard to know what to give my Mom for a gift.  I think she likes things that I make so I made something for her that I  crocheted. I like having something on my feet around the house so I thought maybe she would like these Mary Jane slippers.

I had made a pattern for these earlier so I just tried them with this chunky gray yarn.

I added the flower and had these metallic nickel colored buttons that worked perfectly for the middle of the flower.



Hope that she liked them, ( I know she did, because she told me.)

They were fun to make.

I also used my machine to embroider these kitchen towels for her.

You never can have enough and these just looked so cute with the applique bird.


I added the large Ric rac and they were complete.

I then crocheted a dish cloth to match.

Kind of cute, huh!

She liked these as well.
Happy Birthday Mom!
