Lovely and adorable washcloth!

Nothing says soft to your skin like cotton!
This little hottie is just as adorable in person.
In bright summery crisp white an hot pink.
I started with a pattern but wanted it a bit more frilly so I just winged it, came out just lovely.

They call it a Flower Pot Holder,
but I like the name Deco Pot!
Found this lovely free pattern over at freecraftunlimited.com
I fell in love with its design and texture and with different color combos the look is endless!

Summertime Mary Janes in Cool Lime

These handmade women's Mary Jane slippers are crochet with soft cotton yarn. They fit US women's shoe size 9-11. Each shoe features a working button closure.
  I know first hand just how comfy and cozy these Mary Jane style house shoes are. They are warm in the winter and soft in the summer. Even though you will want to wear them all the time, they should NOT be worn outdoors.
  These are really easy to care for. Hand wash and lay flat to dry or toss into the dryer for a tighter fit. As with all handmade clothing I do recommend hand washing, simply because hand washing helps to preserve the life span of any natural fibers.
