Crochet House Card — Sum of their Stories Craft Blog

I crocheted this cute little granny square house after seeing it on pinterest and then made it into a card for a very lovely friend.

This post has been a long time coming. It's nearly my friend Angela's birthday again! Somehow this got temporarily misplaced in my archives. When I was invited to join the 2015 Pinterest Challenge* I remembered this project and how much I had enjoyed making it.

I saw this lovely little adaptation of a granny square to crochet on pinterest (of course) from Polkadotted Rainbows and knew I had to give it a try.

There is no pattern but there is a link to a variation on the house pattern. It was not too difficult to follow what Polkadotted Rainbows had done (just squared off the bottom corners basically) and I love how it came out.

My lovely friend Angela is a very crafty person who even has a sewing room (not jealous, not jealous, just happy for her!) so I figured she would appreciate this little bit of crochet.

I just stitched it loosely onto this cute sewing themed paper and mounted that on card. This is what the back looked like.

I thought maybe Angela could snip it off and use it as a coaster in her lovely aforementioned sewing room.

I would love to make this again sometime and use it for a house warming card or picture.

*The 2015 Pinterest Challenge is a group of creative bloggers who plan to share something they've made each month inspired by something they first saw on pinterest. For me this is a no brainer, I see a lot of things on pinterest that inspire me!

Here are the contributors for January, check out their lovely project and be inspired!
