I don't know why, I just really wanted to crochet a flower. Of course, me looking as a list of crochet flowers, yeah I have to go after one of the more difficult ones. It wasn't difficult, I just didn't have the right type of yarn so it did not come out exactly as the picture but goodness is it pretty.
But...what do I do with it?
Should this be apart of a bigger project? Suggest me something please!
It was a lot of fun to make and an easy pattern to memorize, so if I need to make more I can.

I am actually thinking of making the lily pad into a purse part. I feel like this would be a cute purse, just a random idea haha!

@DesirousDreamer why don't you try crocheting with different color flowers and then make I bunch of them...they will look great when clustered together

It looks very intricate. Can you form a block around it and use it for squares in an afghan? Is it small enough to add to the side of a hat?

I don't think it would be small enough for a hat, and perhaps I could do an afghan, I never did one before thoug haha

A water lily is normally white or pink. I have a lot of white. So...yeah

@AmbiePam Haha thank you! I think I finished one lily pad and then I cleaned my room and everything kind of vanished.

Very nice. I agree you could make a bunch of them and turn them into a afghan.

@DesirousDreamer Yeah it would be. Or you could make a bunch and figure out a way to add stems and make a bunch of them and put them in a vase and use them as a decoration for your table

@Tina30219 I don't know if a water lily would look good as a bouquet, I do want to make a bouquet some day!

I love to crochet too. I love doing flowers also. I started my hobby about 4 years ago. Look for more patterns in the internet to give you an idea.

Very pretty!
I can see it on a cloth or accessory, I'm not sure about the dimension, but I think of tees, hats, headbands, bags and so on. Okay, I see the laptop in the background but those come in different dimensions too.

It is very nice looking. You could take a Christmas Tree Ornament hook and attach it to it and hang it on your tree as a Christmas Decoration.
