Spring is in the air today. It is a beautiful sunny day, birds are singing outside the window. On the occasion of Valentine’s Day, I wish everyone to find their sweetheart. By the way, the promotion in StitchersLand is going on – when you buy a pattern, you get a free chart ‘Birds in love”. We haven’t got a lot of Valentine’s Day patterns, but this Heart and Roses pattern is about it.
My bestsellers! Crochet Flowers bunting was sold 20 times, Daisies – 14, Sunflowers – 11, and Poppies – 10 times. Anyway, these garlands are in the shop from the beginning.
One of my favourite and most complicated collars is ready. It consists of 25 attached small daisy flowers. The collar is tied with Irish crochet string. I think it is the perfect addition to any sort of look.
One of my favourite collars in LaceCrochetFinds is the Daisy collar necklace. It is rather complicated in crocheting because it consists of small attached details. Firstly you need to do a yellow centre, then crochet white petals to it, and only after that, you can attach petals to another flower. Of course, there is a possibility to crochet flowers separately and then sew them together, but I prefer to add them during crocheting. So, all you need is to count, count, and count!
There are some different crochet bookmarks in CrochetCabinetCrafts. The last one I created is Lavender. Gentle and tiny, it reminds me that I need to visit France, where I wasn’t at all. We planned to go to Provence just before the pandemia began. However, it is still in our plans. One of these Lavender bookmarks goes to USA, Bloomington, MN and the second one goes to Paris as a gift for my second-time customer. I hope they’ll like their bookmarks 🙂
And here are some other types of bookmarks in the shop.
In my third LaceCrochetFinds shop, I sell lace collars crocheted in the Victorian lace style. I recently received an order, which I’m going to take a long time to make because it is something new. The order has a story. My potential customer wants me to make her a high neck collar like the one I have in the shop, but she also needs cuffs to go with it. She sent me a photo of the blouse she wants to sew these cuffs on. I was shocked because it is an Irish crochet blouse, and judging by its look and style, it is vintage. I can’t ruin a thing like that. So I changed the crochet hook to a thinner one; trying to crochet something the same style. I’m curious to see what I can do with it. Now my experiment looks like this.

And I remind you that there is also a discount on 2 Valentine’s Day charts: “Bullfinches in Love”, and a “Heart with Roses”. What is more, for each pattern customer purchases from today, we add the funny pattern “Birds in Love” as a gift. You are welcome!
We have several free cross stitch charts in StitchersLand that we send to customers. Firstly for those who buy two or more patterns. Secondly, to our loyal customers who come back to us. And the last occasion is in connection with various holidays. As the main holiday in February is St. Valentine’s Day, we have decided that from tomorrow, 4th February till 14th February we will send as a gift to every person who buys a pattern from us a chart with these funny Birds in love.
Wow! Today morning I sent two orders to the USA, and one of them was to Hawaii for the first time. Mari purchased white and yellow Daffodils and flowers garlands from me. I always check the address customers give me at their orders just in to avoid mistakes. This time I checked the address because I have never sent something to the HI state. Thank you, Mari, for adding a new point to my sales map. By the way, the second order was to Harwood, MD. Julia bought white Daffodils garland from me.
In general, I am highly suspicious about the weather in the USA, especially around New York. Lots of my orders are in the customs clearing in New York or on their way to it. I am keeping my fingers crossed that nobody gets hurt during this snowstorm and my orders reach the customers.
Bullfinches in Love counted cross stitch pattern in Stitchersland now. It could be the best gift for your beloved cross-stitcher on Valentine’s Day! And it will be on a 10% sale from February 1st till February 14th.
