Making Crochet Ankle Boots

A good friend gifted me a pair of crochet flats, but they felt to loose on my feet. I was thinking about how to make them fit, and I decided to close the shoes transforming them  into ankle boots. I crocheted some roses and leaves with vines, and sewed them on to give the boots a more vintage romantic look. 









After crocheting the front of the shoe and closing it to a desirable length, I worked round rows until I reached the hight that I wanted for the boot.

Making A 1960 Vintage Dress

I found this beautiful crochet dress on Google image, and  I fell in love with the puffed and flared sleeves. I didn't buy the pattern--I made my own pattern by looking at the dress. 
If you are interested in the pattern of this dress, you can find it here
 This is how I made the bodice 

 Worked on double crochet and shell scallop
