Worryingly there's not too many in the finished column considering we're quarter of the way into the year, but hey who said crafting with 2 young children, a house & Hubby to look after would be easy.
Annoyingly the cushions are almost finished but the finishing up takes all the time, I'm blaming the dust cloud;
why not? every one else is. So I thought I'd start some quick gratification projects to keep up the pace.
These are crocheted flowers, I love making these & remember my Grandma showing me how to crochet different types of flowers, so they bring back lovely nostalgic feelings as they glide through my fingers.
I really like this style rose but the way I've made it I think it looks like a water lilly. These are made with a thick cotton which makes them lovely and tactile.
This is a curly flower style & the colour reminds me of Creamed Rice Pudding I connected very close together at the back to give it small full appearance.
Where the larger version above it is kept loose making it wider and less structural, I think it would suit a button or pearls in the middle. This nude colour is everywhere at the moment as is anything floral so I'm hoping to be bang on trend with these.
I just have to attach the backings then these lovelies will be in my shops soon. What other colours would you like to see?
Dreaming of flowers & Summer days.
