CraftBlog: Update 005, Upgrades of 3 Previous Designs

Front Page of CraftBlog UpdatePost 005 by ChameleonStar

Hi, craft lovers!

This is my 5th update post on the studio.

This time I wanted to share the insides of finishing work of Belladonna, Gloria and Petra.

Instead of working on new projects, I've decided to finish my first three crochet zipper pouches/clutch bags designs. So this is the sneak peek at the more polished versions of Belladonna, Gloria and Petra, however, I do plan to make some adjustments in the future.

I've blogged about these 3 projects before in my Update #001 post, so if you want to check it out the link to the post is here.

Belladonna Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag

With Belladonna I did some embroidery work and added the lining. Three new additional colors popped up nicely and played well on the lime pouch body. I really enjoy the final view of Belladonna, it has a very fresh, sparkling, somewhat spring flavor to it.

Gloria Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag

With Gloria I only added some beads to the insides of flowers and did the lining. It kinda made the design more atypical, and a bit of red color brought in some unexpected results. I really enjoy the look of Gloria now, it became more balanced with additional red to the general green.

Petra Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag

With Petra I added lots of beads to the front and the back. I didn't want the beads to pop up too much, so I used only red and white colors, which is the same color palette as the pouch's body itself. Now Petra looks more confident and determined~

And this is it for now!

Wasn't too much work to do, but I'm happy I finally have almost finished projects on my hands. Right now I'm busy with writing patterns of them and, hopefully, that won't be a struggle.


As always, keep your mind sharp and have peaceful thoughts everyone!

Have a fantastic bag day!

CraftBlog: Update 009, 3 New Crochet Zipper Pouches

Hi, craft lovers! This is my 9th update post on the studio. All of the projects are doing great and there's been a lot of work done. I finished decorating some of my previous designs, started a couple new ones and did a lot of lining work for my previous projects.  Today I want to share 3 new crochet projects in their finished look. Their names are Ariete, Luna and LĂ©onie. All of them have quite a sweet and soft touch, and they were all inspired by warm spring thematics. Ariete Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag The design was inspired by the blooming of spring flowers and I wanted to add a bit of cool freshness to the whole picture. The clutch design was made in hope to bring some white floral elegance into everyday life. The body of the clutch is quite simple and most of the work was focused on decoration. I wanted to try out some 2-side colors ideas for some time now and am very happy about it coming alive like that~ I chose royal blue color for one side and the borders and crepe

CraftBlog: Update 006, 3 New Crochet Zipper Pouches

Hi, craft lovers! This is my 6th update post on the studio. Been busy building my DeviantArt account , but managed to finish three more projects. This time I did a lot of embroidery and, must say, really adored it~ Probably, gonna do more of that cute stuff in the future~ So, I finished three crochet zipper pouches I previously mentioned in Update Post #004 and started two new designs as well. One of two new works (that you can see in the end of the post) has a 2-side color motif to it and is inspired by the blooming of spring flowers. The second new design is my first 'true' clutch, and I really love the combination of two colors in it and the crochet stitch I chose for this project. Scroll to the end if you want to take a peek. Now let's take a look at my finalized projects for this update. Hailey Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag One of three zipper pouches has a lot of embroidery on it, which is something I'd been wanting to do for some time now. It has pastel color

CraftBlog: Update 002, 3 Crochet Zipper Pouches

Hi, craft lovers! This is my 2nd CraftBlog's update post. I made another three items. Just as I wanted during the previous week, I crocheted a zipper pouch from a milky woolen yarn, a small darker and very simple mini-pouch, and a dark red and bigger in size basket-like bag. Drew Crochet Zipper Pouch/Clutch Bag The milky pouch also shares a 5-petal plain flower with colored center for a decoration, which I also did for the  red-and-white pouch previous week . Only this time I used orange beads to decorate the center of the flowers, which played out completely new effect on the item. I called this design Drew; maybe because this particular set of colors really pulls me in and inspire to make more designs like this one.

Then I just made flowers from ribbons and sewed them onto the front pa
