The Crochet Bucket and the Other Things I Made for a Friends Easter Basket

I crocheted this cute Minnie purse and lined it with fabric . 

It also has a button closure on the back.

 

I also crocheted these cute cupcakes for playtime fun.

 



Next I made this Travel Car Case.

I had never sewn on vinyl before and it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.

Tissue Paper, Tissue Paper, Tissue Paper is a most on sewing on vinyl!

I machine quilted 2 pieces of flannel to the front and 2 onto the back so the mat is nice and thick to play cars on. (6 layers of fabric altogether)

I also added little garage door holders so the cars won't keep sliding out on their own.

I just used some little strips of fabric and Velcro.

Finally I added a piece of black ribbon for the road and a strap for closing the garage.

A machine quilted basketball bookmark for the reader.

 



I crocheted this Goosey Goose for the baby of the family.

 



 

Next I made this neat Card Holder for a boy that has several decks of cards.

I decided to use vinyl so he could see which decks are stored in each pocket.

The traffic sign fabric goes with his bedroom and again I machine quilted the fabric so it would be a little sturdier to hold the cards.

I just drew around a hanger for the shape and then added the length I wanted.

I just added some binding around the edges and I think it made a cute hanging holder.

 



 

 

 

and now for the entire Easter surprise for my friends kids.

 

 

I'm glad I got to help make the kids Easter fun!

The best part is that everything is machine washable,

even the bucket!
