Challenger # 9 from the Battle of the Stitches Round 1... Can you believe we're almost through the reveals?
This Challenger is another super lady who I have seen in various crochet groups on FaceBook but didn't really know until now. Hope is the talent behind the business Awe Stitch and I would love if you could go tell her what you think of her design using the Rocky Road crochet stitch.

Challenger #7 Battle of the Stitches Reveal
Battle of the Stitches |
Our Challenger #7 is Tera from Trifles N Treasures. She chose to use Red Heart Gumdrop yarn (another one to add to my list) and I think it worked great!
Isn't it fun to see how the different yarns show the same stitch?
Challenger #6 Battle of the Stitches Reveal
This design is one of the most Genius ideas I've seen! You will have to wait for the pattern to find out why - but seriously - Love it!
Our Challenger #6 for the Battle of the Stitches is Katy from KT and the Squid.
I have seen her work, but didn't really know her until she was suggested as a challenger. I'm so glad she accepted the challenge and I'm sure you will agree - she has a fabulous design.
She chose to use Cotton Ease Seaspray & Stone for her design and they are "Calming" and "Relaxing" to me. Very pretty!

Challenger #5 Battle of the Stitches Reveal
I think you will agree - this is a beautiful design. They all are and I'm so glad that I was not a judge in this Battle of the Stitches! This is definitely on my list to make (ok, so I think I am adding 10 new designs to my list of projects) and I know right where it is going. My Great Grandma had a beautiful Serving table that is now my parent's. This is the ONE thing that I Really want passed down to me.
Challenger #5 is Rachel from The Country Hooker Designs. Rachel is just starting out in designing and I was happy to have her join the fun.
She chose to use Cotton Yarn for her project and I think it looks amazing.

Challenger # 4 Battle of the Stitches Reveal
Our 4th Challenger in the Battle of the Stitches chose to use Red Heart's Unforgettable yarn. Oh how pretty this is! Another yarn to add to my ever growing list :)
Schere is the face behind Schere's Crafty Crochet and her design is so pretty. I can see this easily being made in a small size for a doll and a child size so that some cute little girls can have "Mommy and Me" shawls. Wouldn't it be fun to make some for moms and daughters for photos?

I'm ready to reveal the next design - Are you ready to see it?
Challenger #3 in the Battle of the Stitches was Ann from Glamour4You.
Ann is a designer that I have watched for a while and she amazes me. Very unique and creative.
She chose to use Deborah Norville Yarn for her design and it's beautiful! It's a brand that I have not tried yet and it's now on my list.

Challenger #2 Battle of the Stitches Reveal
Challenger #2 in our Battle of the Stitches Round 1 was Jennifer Hatch
Spring is Definitely in the air with this collection from Hatch-ed With Love. Jen chose to use some fun, bright colors in the I Love this Yarn Brand. The 3 different options she worked up are wonderful and I would love to make some for our home. Buttons are such a great touch to the design and I plan on using some fun ones for mine!

My Battle of the Stitches Project and Craft idea
It's getting close to the reveals of our Battle of the Stitches designs! Woo Hoo!!!
What a VERY exciting time this has been. The Designers have all been amazing and their creativity and talent. It has been a wonderful and positive experience. While I would have loved to be one of the Challengers, I didn't think it would be fair since I set everything up. I also didn't think it would be fair of me to expect them to design something with a stitch that I haven't tried myself. So, my solution for this was to work up a project myself and just not have it judged.
The theme for the Battle is Mother's Day. The designers were asked to design something using the Rocky Road crochet stitch that they would give as a Mother's Day gift OR something that they themselves would like to receive for Mother's Day. As many of you know, I love to make old fashioned candy. I enjoy cooking (when I don't have to worry about picky eaters) and learned to cook from my mom. She is a fantastic cook!
