My first Crocheted cushion !

Hello lovely ones!
~ I hope you are feeling just as happy as I am that it's Friday!~

*Remember to enter the giveway/s in the post below this one, there is still 12 days to do so!!*

I wanted to share my first crochet cushion cover with you. I couldn't believe how quick and easy this was, I literally finished it in the space of a weekend. I sat two nights whilst watching TV to make this. So it must of taken in total about 4 hours to make.



I simply used 4 granny squares left over from a previous project and then crocheted those together and then did a border of single crochet around all 4 squares. I then simply did a row of double crochet until I got to the desired measurement.

The back is simply one large granny square using double crochet (3 at a time into each space followed by one single crochet).

Then I joined the front and back together using afghan stitch and then finished off with a little edge which is ch3, 2 dch all into small hole, then next st a single ch and then next st ch3 followed by 2 dch and so on and so on all the way around.

Completed with 6 little buttons I hand sewed on.
A final touch was adding 4 little flowers to the center of each granny square and then sew a little button onto each flower center.

And this one is in my daughter's room as the colors match so nicely with her room deco!

Anyway I am glad it's weekend, cos, firstly I need SLEEP! *can never get enough when every morning I wake up at 6 and it is pitch dark until 7:30!!*

-To do something constructive and crafty (as always :)
-To spend time with the little ones
-get some gardening done! *got seeds to plant*!

What about you...any plans??
