Queen Anne’s Lace

May 24, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 29 Comments

It has been perfect crochet weather this week. After seeing Kate’s lovely scarves using the Queen Anne’s Lace pattern, I put hook to yarn to make one for winter. I used a pattern I found at This Domestic Life which has helpful photographed steps. It is a quite straight forward pattern and it was relaxing to crochet while watching Master Chef.

I used 1 1/2 balls of 8 ply wool yarn from spotlight and a 4.00 mm crochet hook. I crocheted 50 medallions.

I will definitely be making more of these.

    Gorgeous! Love the colour and the design you’ve chosen for your scarf.
    Funny, I’ve been doing some crochet here as it’s turned cold and rainy.

    Gosh! Everyone is crocheting this! I saw Kate’s post too. A few years ago now I crocheted a baby blanket using this pattern. I used 4 ply yarn with a 5mm hook and it was a lovely lacy gossemer rug.

    I.m ending the flower on the wrong side i think. How do i get back into the pattern? Do I end here and begin a new loop again in the centre? Its bugging me so much and I’ve unravelled twice already. ;(

    Thanks for helping out a stranger.

      Hi Natasha – Sorry to hear you are having issues – that is no fun at all! I followed someone else’s pattern and as I made this a few years ago, can’t really remember the details. I just did a google search and there is a utube clip you could follow – hopefully that will solve your problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIzNoe_C76U

        What a dear you are. I wound off. Then began on the opposite end, and now, suitably chastised (and thrilled that I’m back on course), I’m paying closer attention to the pattern. Love from India.

Adding a handmade label is one of my favourite way Adding a handmade label is one of my favourite ways to personalise a project — and these little fabric + felt labels are so quick and satisfying to make.For this Ribbon Pouch, I used the Liberty Gifts from the Garden collection, which has the sweetest fruit motifs. They make perfect tiny labels for pouches, bags, and gifts.Here’s how to make your own:Press a piece of double‑sided fusible web to the back of your fabric.Cut around your chosen motif.Peel off the paper backing.Press the motif onto wool felt.Trim the felt with scalloped scissors.Sew the label onto the front of your pouch.Such a simple detail, but it adds so much charm. Fabric kindly gifted by @regent_street_fabrics — thank you!If you’d like to sew the Ribbon Pouch (3 sizes), comment RIBBON and I’ll send the pattern link straight to you.#SewingInspiration #FabricLabels #DIYLabels #LibertyFabric #LibertyGiftsFromTheGarden
A lot can change in 10 years ❤️ It’s been fun look A lot can change in 10 years ❤️ It’s been fun looking back at where I was in 2016 and how far life has come since then. Swipe for a little trip down memory lane.Back in 2016, my priorities were firmly centred around family. I was working full‑time, sewing in the guest room, sharing tutorials on my blog, and slowly dipping my toes into selling a handful of patterns on Etsy. It was a busy, full season — and creativity was something I fitted in around everything else.  Fast forward to 2026… I’m now retired and living the creative life I once dreamed of. My kids have grown up and are living in their own homes nearby. My husband and I are free to travel, explore, and enjoy this stage of life. And I get to spend my days designing, sewing, and connecting with this beautiful community.Life looks different now — in the best possible way.Were you following me back then, or what has changed for you over the past 10 years? I’d love to hear your story too.Tagging the lovely makers of my quilt: @arabesquescissors @ministryoffabric @belloquacity @alittlepatchwork @sameliasmum coleandtaffy @quiltymamaof4 @shequiltsalot @downgrapevinelane @lizzierosesews @lovethatfabric @sew_mimi.k #2026isthenew2016 #10yeartransformation #sewingjourney #sewingcommunity #aspoonfulofsugardesigns

If you’ve ever wanted to add eyelets or grommets t If you’ve ever wanted to add eyelets or grommets to your sewing projects, here’s a quick look at how I install them using my DK93 snap press. It’s the same tool I use for snaps — and it makes installing eyelets beautifully quick and consistent.For this Ribbon Pouch, I used the Liberty Gifts from the Garden collection (printed on Lasenby cotton and released in January 2026). The colours and motifs pair so well with the little ribbon tie detail.Here’s how to install the eyelets:Punch out the four holes using a hole‑cutting die.Place the eyelet into the hole.Press it into place using the snap press.That’s it — easy peasy, and it gives the pouch such an elevated, professional finish. I love how clean and sturdy the result is.Fabric is Gifts from the Garden by Liberty - kindly provided by @regent_street_fabrics — thank you!If you’d like the Ribbon Pouch pattern (it comes in 3 sizes), comment RIBBON and I’ll send the link straight to you.Ribbon Pouch Sewing Pattern: available in our Pattern Store and Etsy shop ( links in profile).#SewingInspiration #SewingProjects #Eyelets #Grommets #SnapPress
The Twirling Treasures Hot Pad & Placemat Set show The Twirling Treasures Hot Pad & Placemat Set showcases one of my favourite FPP designs — a stunning kaleidoscope‑style block that always turns out beautifully. Kaleidoscope blocks are some of my most popular FPP patterns, and this set is such a fun way to use them.  This set includes six sizes, making it incredibly versatile: use them as hot pads, trivets, placemats, or simply as a way to add a pop of colour to your kitchen.For these samples, I went with a monochromatic scrap‑busting approach, pairing fabrics from the same colour family with a low‑volume background. The black‑and‑white striped binding adds such a crisp, modern finish. It’s a wonderful project for building your FPP confidence — and a fantastic way to use up those treasured scraps.The Twirling Treasures Hot Pad set is our Pattern of the Week. It is currently 25% off this week in our Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.If you’d like to sew your own set, comment TWIRL and I’ll send the pattern link straight to you.Happy sewing!
