Horse mobile pouch

For last couple of days I have been crocheting mobile pouches. There is a big tournament coming up at the stables I live nearby, so I decided to have a little stall in there and try to sell some of my crafty things. I have plenty of things on order, still waiting for them to arrive. There is a huge wool order to come too! This is so exciting :) I started buying wool in kilograms. It is certainly not helping my wallet ;) I can only hope that what I will sell at the tournament will keep me going for a while.

This is the first pouch I made. It is very simple: ch 14 and then just work you way up, until you have twice the size of your mobile, sew on applique and sew both sides together to make a pouch. Simple yet pretty.


So I have spend last couple of days making simple pouches. I cut out tens of horse heads too:

The only problem I have with them is that the colours are not very vivid. I would prefer something which stands out more, like neon. Unfortunately nearby shop doesn't stock anything like this and Ebay shops have pretty bad pictures there. If there is anybody there who reads this and know a manufacturer of nicely coloured felt, please let me know! And if possible send a sample or two ;)

Anyway, I was going to sew them up today, but then I thought that I actuallz donÄ…t like sewing. And that I don't want to do it today. So after two hours on Pinterest (yeah...) I decided to go for something with pretty flowers.


So far I have 8 flowers and still no idea what I am going to make out of them :D

But they are cute, aren't they?




And here they are were they should be:
