I adore watermelon....it's one of my very favorite things about summertime!!! And....since my favorite hobby is crocheting....well, why not crochet up a slice of watermelon?!?
I didn't have a pattern, just made it up as I went along, using yarn that I had on hand in watermelon colors....and I was pretty pleased with the results!!!
I sewed little round buttons on as the seeds....and lined it with some pretty coordinating fabric!!!
As hubby tells me all the time....
"you're 'purse poor' "....
....meaning I have way too many purses!!!
"you're 'purse poor' "....
....meaning I have way too many purses!!!
Is that even possible?
Can a girl ever have too many purses?!?!

Blessings to you,
