And I really think we are getting there - based on the granny square but a bit simpler. I had to block the first panel (cushion cover is made up of 4) to assess the size (too big for my 40 cm x 40 cm cushion), work out in my head how the panels will be put together, and how I will deal with the interlining and backing. But I am happy with progress so far. Will write a proper pattern for it once finished - and if I like it.
Just in case you missed yesterday's post, this is the inspiration |
Here we are on my way to save £40.00! As it happens I looked on the House of Fraser website and could not actually find the cushion cover, so if anyone sees it please could you send me a picture?
That will be so stunning!
ReplyDeleteLooks really good!
ReplyDeletelooks great!
ReplyDeleteVery impressed that you got it so quickly!
ReplyDeleteLovely work! It takes some real skill to look at a finished product and be able to duplicate it. This will make a really expensive-looking pillow. Even though it's thrifty. :)
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Very pretty too! Those 'eureka moments' are priceless. (:
ReplyDeleteHope that all goes to plan. How odd you couldn't find it on their website! =D
ReplyDeleteOoh... pretty block and can't wait to see the finished cover - it'll look fabulous for sure.
ReplyDeleteWriting up the pattern for it sounds great too...look forward to it!
This looks lovely, I love when I see something and am able to figure out how to make it myself for less.
ReplyDeleteI've been doing more crocheting than sewing lately, but haven't been feeling up to blogging about any of it.
Hello, I spotted your blog in the small blog meet of Lily's quilts and I thought that I could say hi.
ReplyDeleteI think the thing you are doing are great, I had some nocturnal thinking yesterday night!
I've just started a new blog http://artyandcraftylittlethings.blogspot.co.uk/
