Pajama Bottom, Batman & Sunburst

 Hi! All you lovely peolple out there! Here is my newest project which is a Sunburst granny square blanket or lapghan depending on my mood on how big I want to make it. The color inspiration came from my new pajama bottom. I just love the colors! By the way, that isn't yellow but mustard which I also love.

 And this is my progress so far. If I wanted to use this blanket during this coming monsoon season, I need to work faster.

 Those two circles reminds me of minions eyes.

Yesterday, out of the blue, my husband asked me if I knew of any store that sells batman costumes. That had me blinking. I asked him costumes with the cape on? Yes, he replied. I ask again, whatever for? He said..I think I want to be Batman. Hahahaha..of all things! Then I look at what I'm crocheting, why..these are Batman's colors! So, I'm going to name this blanket the Batman Sunburst Blanket. Or Lapghan.

 

 Same, yes? How mighty he looks..

 This tiny daisy I found beside my house keeps up with the color scheme.

I've always loved photography although I've never had a professional camera before. That's in my bucket list. I am aiming to do a photography project with a theme soon. Maybe anything to do with nature. Maybe I'll start with this daisy. Yes! That's it! I'm excited now!

Ok, that's all for now, I'll post again real soon. Take care and thanks for stopping by :)

A Corner-to-Corner Baby Blanket

 Hello! After seeing a lot of crocheters making this C2C blanket on Pinterest, I had to make one, too. I love how easy and fast it goes. I watched a video on Youtube and a couple of tutorials I found for the pattern but I never finished them so..on and on I go. Mistake! I only noticed after almost finishing the second ball of yarn that it's never ending! What is going on?! Then I realized that I have to decrease when I get to the length that I want. So don't make the same mistake I made if you're interested in making this type of blanket as well :p

 The yarn is called Alize Sekerim. I thought that two balls of them was enough to make a baby blanket but alas it wasn't so..I had to improvised by using an almost similar colored yarns which was from the same company, Alize Burcum.

 

I chose this simple and pretty border after trying out another one which was frilly and just didn't match with the blanket pattern. I had second thoughts about the bold orange color but I think it works with the overall color scheme, don't you?

Okay! I'm almost finished with another project which is a cushion cover. Hopefully it'll be finished today so that I can show you tomorrow. See you then!

Projects Past & Present

 

 Hello everybody! Looooong time no post, right? I've just been lazy but I hope to rectify that soon. Isn't that baby blanket just sweet?? It's my latest project that I finished last month. It's called the Fluffy Meringue Blanket by Yarnspirations. I love the pattern, yarn and colors! It's just perfect for a baby as a security blanket. I think if I made it bigger and in a bolder color it could be perfect for an adult, too. Let's have a closer look.

Pretty and sweet!

Okay, I'm going to blast you with projects I've made within these last few months so sit back and enjoy!

 The above pattern is from Dada's Place called the Primevera Flowers Granny square.

 

 

 I found this pattern one day while surfing Pinterest from a Swedish blog called 'so crocheted' when translated. I was very interested in creating a similar cushion cover with some minor adjustments. Although it looks easy to do but it did took quite some time.

 Ripple has always been my favorite pattern! I just crocheted a long length then sew it together like an envelope.

 

 

 This is the Flower Square VI from Color 'n Cream blog.

 

 Did you see the Japanese Flower cushion covers on Dada's Place? Aren't they just gorgeous?? And as usual I had to make one, too! Though I wrongly read the diagram so the flowers are a little wonky. Anyhow, I enjoyed making them. I was proud of myself for sewing my first cushion cover (envelope style), ever. I just hand sewed the crocheted piece onto it or rather the cover onto the crocheted piece.

Alright! So, today I've shown you all the cushion covers I've made and a blanket. Tomorrow will be the bags turn. I hope I've inspired you to make one cushion cover, at least :)

Take care and see you soon!
