Finding Childhood Craft Treasures III: Crochet Motifs

I found my old craft box in my parents' home! Yaaaaay! Maybe this might come across as overexcited, but you have no idea what a big deal this is for me, especially since we moved many many times before settling into our current home in 1997.


My childhood "practice" yarn and floss


Childhood Treasures: First attempt, goofy looking, yet oh so brilliant crochet motifs

This is what I found with the yarn--I do not remember learning how to make these motifs. My mother tells me that this was my first attempt at crocheting flower inspired stuff. That is quite clear--the mistakes and goof-ups are plenty! I would love to figure out the pattern again, but mom does not remember it. Brilliant.

Anyway, as of now, I am trying to figure out what to make with these motifs....
