My First Thread Bed Spread

[DEMET]

This is the first bedspread that I made out of size 10 ecru thread. I believe I crocheted over 400 square motifs and attached them at the last round.

I made it when I fisrt started to make things, so it was a big challange for me at that time.

It is for King size bed. I used a little while and am saving for my doughter (she is 4.5)

Did you make that from a pattern or just on a whim?
I love that pattern.
I am tackling my first thread project ( a christening gown) but would love to do a bedspread and this one is beautiful.

Hi,

This pattern came from ALTIN BASAK crochet book. But I saw same pattern at Magic or Decorative crochet magazines.

[Brandybuck]

That is absolutely gorgeous...my sister took a look at it, marveled, and said she'd basically do herself in before she'd have the attention span to do something like that. :D Great work!

[Nevermore]

It's beautiful! I admire anyone with the patience to create something that large in thread crochet

[Auntie Kellie]

My goodness, that is beautiful.

[ladysnow]

TRIZIA:clap :cheer

[Beaglelady]

VERY pretty. I couldn't have something like that on our bed. DH would make a total mess of it and I have currently 2 beagles that sleep with us a night. I think it would be beyond my patience level. But it will sure be something for your daughter to treasure for sure!

[sapphirebabyblues]

:clap I have always wanted to do one NICE
