Ok you may or may not know that I knit knit and knit, always have a project or two on the needles and my latest is this sample cushion. I used Rowan Cotton Glace 5 different colours and for those in the knitting world know, went and sourced my patterns from Ravelry knitting community. 9 squares 2 weeks later ta da!!!!!....a part besequined (erm is that a word?) ah well....cushion...I love the jewelled colours, you see thats my problem. I love pastels for things and then drawn to these gorgeous colourways. Actually don't laugh the knitted bottom left square is supposed to be a cup of coffee, but I stupidly put it on upside down and inside out.

We all need bunting and a knitted cushion!
Thought would show you this years grapes.....not bad eh! might be edible!!!!!!!!! Tried them last year ohhhhhh! sour.Thought I would show you my bunting, actually as you can see I'm not very picture taking savvy, but it is all oilcloth Cath Kidston, florals/spots and the like. I wanted to make some myself but when I cam across a seller making these for £10 and theres 15 flags...only problem is the ends furl up in the wind, any ideas? Only place to put it around the spa

The cushion is GORGEOUS...you are a clever knitter!
A tip for your bunting.You could sew a bead to the tip of each triangle..that might stop them curling up,and would look pretty too!
Bellaboo ;o)
Hi Teresa! Your grapes look wonderful! I that your garden? Lovely! And the pillow is simply gorgeous! Love the colors! I hope you are having a great week!...hugs....Debbie
Oh! I really like that cushion, especially the pastel colors. Got to love Rowan.
I've missed reading your blog. And I'm sorry to read about your mom passing although I also know it is a blessing. My mom is struggling with many health problems and she lives over 500 miles away. I feel pretty helpless to do much for her. My dad is in good health, but he's not a nurturer, so not exactly patient with the fact that he is burdened with so much responsibility.
Brilliant Cushion love your choice of colours
Thought I loved the pot holders bestest - BUT not I have seen the cushion.....ooooh want one badly!
