I just finished my 3rd shawl for my church's prayer shawl ministry. I really liked making this one. I used a single crochet stitch for the entire shawl, which measures 25 x 60 inches. I then crocheted some little leaves and flowers to applique onto the finished shawl. I then made a pretty card to go with the shawl using the stamp set Flowers Awash, which will be in the new Stampin' Up! 2010-11 Idea Book & Catalog debuting in July.
I love that I have been able to combine my love for crocheting and my love for creating cards. Hopefully the person who receives these gifts will enjoy them both.
Very nice! We had our first prayer shawl ministry meeting last night and I'm googling to see what others do. I also stamp and I love your idea of combining the two hobbies.
