Millionbells
Hi! My name is Marjan and I am the designer behind Millionbells Crochet Patterns.
Together with my dear friend Ron, I live in a small town in The Netherlands, very close to the German border and to the beautiful green countryside, which I love so much.
I'm glad you came to this page, where I can tell you a little bit about me and my crochet life.
This is me
I started designing in 2011, on a small scale, trying to create the items and characters in my head and it grew from there.
It was a fun learning experience and in order to remember what I crocheted, in case I wanted to make the item again, I started scribbeling down my own instructions.
I repeated this method with following designs, added step-by-step pictures and a lot of additional crochet information, for other crocheters to enjoy them too.
And voilà,
my first batch of crochet patterns was a fact!
My life
When I had to make a career choice, I opted for a creative floral design course, where I learned to master the profession.
I am doing this work for over 30 years now and I work a part-time job at a lovely flower shop in a nearby town, where I get all the creative freedom in the field of flower arranging.
Together with crochet design, this is a wonderful combination for me!
​
The name Millionbells comes from my work in the flower business, these are just my ever favorite garden flowers.
They bloom all summer long, with countless colorful flowers. I love them!
