Mini Cherry Pie

This is the last in the series of mini pies I'll be making for the Thanksgiving box. You can find the free pattern here.

I'm still planning on at least one more pattern for the box and a couple of house decorations for Thanksgiving before moving on to my Christmas projects. I do need to get this box out in the mail for it to arrive to be of much use for Thanksgiving.

Crochet Cherry Pie

I've been looking through my play food pattern binder and crochet food books to find patterns for the Thanksgiving box. I ran across the Cherry Pie pattern in AmiguruMe Eats: Make Cute Scented Crochet Foodsand loved the textured look of the pie pattern. Most of the patterns I'd been looking at had smooth sides to the pie edges. I loved the bumbpy filling as the pattern directions called this one. I'm hoping to make a piece of blueberry pie to go in the box as well.

You might think I'm a huge pie eater, but I'm not. I occasionally have a slice of apple but pie isn't really my favorite sweet. However, making a wide variety of pies was always a Thanksgiving staple in my house growing up and seeing these crochet pies has brought back some really nice childhood memories that I thought to pass on to others.

Just a note to those of you who might be curious about the scented portion of the book title. There are directions for adding scent to the food projects. It is not something that is required when making the food projects. I have no interest in adding scent to these toys, so I've ignored the directions without it changing the pattern. For those of you interested,the directiosn are available in the book.
