I love this little flower keychain. It's going on my list of gift ideas for Christmas. I started a blog that is a collective of crochet patterns I find on the web. So many creative bloggers! I hope you don't mind I linked to one of your photos with a short description and a link back to your site for the pattern. It will post 11/08/10. Thank you for sharing this sweet keychain pattern!

Hi! I love this little fanged flower and would like to make a few to sell at a raffle that our dance school is doing. I see that you are donating money to various animal charities and would like to give you some money to your current cause as payment for selling some items designed by you. Is that okay? How can I go about this? (Do you have a 'tipping' place?) Thanks for your help. Now to see if I can crochet!!
ReplyDeleteHi TanteNissy, so nice you want to make these for a raffle. Just sell them there that is okay! Thank you so much and have fun!!!
