Wonderful Handmade Trims



After almost as much fuss and worry as I care to put into one piece, the "Super-Amazing German Black Forest Quilt" as it has been dubbed, is complete. Although quite striking for many reasons (to toot my own horn :) The most exciting component to this blanket has to be the hand-made red crochet trim ala Kimmi. Through the miracle of barter, I came across a couple lengths of this, and it was definitely the touch that my project needed.





Here are a few examples of work by The Pink Plaid Sheep utilizing some of Kimmi's handmade trims as well:


Soon, a question and answer with Kimmi will be posted, and you can gain a little insight into the woman responsible for dressing up and trimming out some of our favorite projects. If you crochet, try this! And thank you to Kimmi for your insights, ideas, and inspiration :)
