My mother made me a bouquet of crocheted flowers

[Gawang Gantsilyo]

The project was for: The project was used for my prenuptial photoshoot held at Univeristy of the Philippines, Diliman. The flowers are made from mercerized cotton threads with little floral assembly at the middle to form the stigma. The project used two colors of thread: Red for the petals and Green for the leaves. I wrapped a satin green ribbon to held the flowers together.

The project was made by: I am a crochet addict, and recently i have infected my mother. She keeps wanting more and more crochet projects.  And she was very eager to help me during the wedding preparations, she even obliged to make me a bouquet of flowers to be used as props. I was very grateful because she made the flowers very beautiful, enough to make my photoshoot a memorable experience :)

Thank you mommy for making my prenup perfect with these crocheted flowers!

About the pattern:

The instructions for the flowers came from “Crochet for a Neautiful Home”, published by Sedgewood Press. I found this old book in one of the second hand bookstore in my university. I was very happy that I got this, and although I was short on budget (mind you, the book only cost me 150 pesos), I just really had to have this book.
