So here is my latest creation for my friend Emily's 21st (@emily_rebecca), a magic garden complete with mushroom house, button-tree with a whimsical owl on top, two accidentally creepy looking rabbits and a golden sequin path. I made the flowers on the left hand side by crocheting three or four different sewing threads together using this pattern. To make sure it stood up (the circle base was a bit floppy!) I sandwiched a piece of card between the base of the garden and another circle made using double crochet, to give it a solid foundation.
And here it is!
I'm extra happy because this is one of the first things I've made that I have improvised, on the most part without any patterns. I did take inspiration from these amazing crochet houses by meekssandygirl on Flickr:
