Just a quick note..

THE FLOWER BED
A Group Blog
Temporarily Closed.
Some decisions to make. To run a successful blog takes a lot of time and effort something I am short of now.
Plus we have been getting a huge amount of SPAM mail that all has to be dealt with.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

  1. Hi I love your crochet and adore that camper.
    Do you use that for vacation?
    I am from Australia, we would love to buy one of those campers but they are very hard to find.
    I love those flowers the colours look great.
    Have fun.

  6. I'm just amazed that you can post 1 year into the future. :P
    I'm following this blog until I get the gist of what you're all about. I crochet almost constantly but I don't make many flowers.

  7. Kat - it's my superpowers lol. The flowers are pretty quick to make and very easy so they are quite satisfying. I still haven't decided on colour yet. Feel free to email if you want to join in.

  8. I'm not ready to take on a new project at the moment (relocating-huge move out of state soon) so I'll just follow and admire.

    Love the bus! Had a '58 double door and couple bugs a few years back. I miss my hippy days. LOL!

    Everyone's pics are lovely. Keep up the great work. Cheers!

  49. First I thought that I just wanted to admire this blog, but now... I have caught the flower crochet virus... so can I join? I'm not too comfortable with writing down my e-mail here, but if you send me a message I'll let you know!
    Esther.

    ReplyDelete

  50. Hello Esther, I have left a message for you on your blog as you don't have an email address that is accessible in your blogger profile or on your blog. If you could email me (my email is in my profile) that would be great. It is much better if people don't put their email address on her but email either myself, Hazel or Suz directly. We all have our emails in our blogger profile. Rachael Xx

    ReplyDelete

  51. I would love to join your flower bed please?

    ReplyDelete

  52. Hi! I kept telling myself that I could not possibly join this blog as I am new to crocheting. Hazel has me hooked on the flowers and I am working on an afghan (large flowers) and a shawl (small flowers) at the same time. This is so much fun and you are all such an inspiration. I am looking forward to continuing being inspired by you all! So I would love to join your flower bed...

  56. Thank you Eileen, I'll sort that out in a few days :)

    Hello Deborah! I have left a message for you on your blog but what you need to do is to send an email address to me so that I can use that to invite you. I looked in your blogger profile but you don't have one there. There is a great pattern for the Japanese Flower on Elizabeth Cats blog & on Suz's blog too. I can send a chart of the flower to you if you'd like once I have your email address. Rachael Xx

The colors are fantastic--love the crocheted flowers in the blog header and love the results of people's endeavors.

I'm really excited to have found this bright and fun blog!
