Hi! My name is Sheila

[Sheila R]

I am looking for patterns for crocheted mini holiday patterns (approx. 1" )such as hearts, shamrocks, easter eggs, pumpkins, etc. I had pattern booklets once upon a time, but have moved so many times that I can no longer find them. Thanks.....

Sheila,

Welcome to the group! It is a pleasure to have you on board. A few weeks ago, I posted some videos on little things like you are requesting. Please take a look in our links and resources thread:

Links and Resources

If you need additional ideas, please let me know and we will add some more ideas. I know their are some heart ideas and egg ideas. I will need to look and see what we have in the way of shamrocks, and pumpkins. I do know I posted some St. Patrick's Day ideas.

[Sheila R]

I'm sorry to say I was not able to locate the patterns you told me you had. I found 1 heart after about a 45 min. search. I'm new to this site, so I'm having problems locating things. (I'm also pretty computer illiterate!)

Thanks,
Sheila

Thanks for your patience Sheila! I normally would post some threads directly here, but had to leave for a bit this morning on very short notice.

Here are links to some of the threads I was referring to:

Thanks Patti! I can't wait to look at the links! Everyone has been so nice and accomodating, I'm very glad I joined the forum. How's the weather in AR? I used to live in Bentonville. Sheila

Thanks Barb for your response. Between your suggestions and Patti's, I'm sure I'll find what I'm looking for. As I told Patti, everyone's been so nice and accomodating and I'm glad I joined the forum. Thanks again, Sheila

The weather is and has been unseasonably warm in Arkansas. NW Arkansas had snow on the ground for about half a day Monday (both my children and my grandchildren live there ---Rogers and Fayetteville) but in NE Arkansas where I live the snow melted about as quick as it hit the ground.

Where are you living now?

[Sheila R]

I now live in Michigan where I was born and raised. I've lived in Chicago, AR, KS and am now back in MI. My ex-husband's job caused numerous moves. That's when I lost my crochet pattens (or it was one of the things he confiscated during the divorce. lol) It has been unseasonably warm here also. We had NO snow for Christmas and it's only snowed a few times since. It's been in the high 30's and low 40's. I like it!!!!! I wish to move back to AR someday.....it was my favorite place to live.

I've been browsing the links you sent me and have found quite a few "fridgies" to crochet. I crochet on kitchen towels and like to embellish them with little coordinating shapes.

Thanks again....

Sheila

p.s. keep me posted on the happenings in AR!
