I purchased this pattern last year, the beauty of the African violets June has captured in a very realistic looking product, which reminded me of my grandmothers home, on each end table or shelf in her home was lovingly placed - a hand crocheted doily with a beautiful potted African violet plant.
My Grandmothers were lovenly tended to, as they were real plants, for years I have tried to grow one of these dainty beautiful plants, however with no great green thumb success! Until I found Junes wonderful pattern, I have several blooming beauty's in my home now, and they are care free!!! ( That's the best part, they never need watering, and they never wither and die!) The African Violet's are in my home to enjoy year after year!
Pattern is well written and easy to crochet up.

Thanks June for the memories brought to life!
Sincerely Sherry M.
