Crochet Mushroom Applique

 

This crochet Mushroom applique is the next creation in my series of Heart-Shaped Applique free crochet patterns. The cap of my crochet Mushroom is made from a heart.

To make this applique, you will need to crochet a heart for the Mushroom’s cap and stem, then sew them together!

I made mushroom appliques in two sizes and they are perfect for embellishing kids clothes, blankets, hats, etc.
