This baby gave me a hard time. While the pattern I got for it was very easy to figure out (for an experienced beginner), finding the right fabric and making the right size cushion was a bit challenging (I don't sew).
By the way, this is a vinyl record crocheted top for a cushion... (!) And since the very first time I saw the pattern at Tangled Online Magazine, I fell for it ♥. I knew it was for me. I am obsessed with having blue stuff around the bedroom, call it pictures, headboards, frames, rugs and etcetera; and I can't sleep with less than 2 pillows (for myself).
It took a considerable amount of patience, and that's exactly why I crochet, to exercise it. 17 inches of diameter, 60% black (extra hard for my eyes) 30% blue. Sewn to a rounded black cushion. Hand made 100%
This is based on the "You spin me right round" pattern by Rommyna de Leeuw. I added a couple of rounds more to it and made the "sticker" blue, to match my bedroom obsession. |
Wrong, The Cushion is named after the failed attempt to make this beautiful top fit on a first pillow I made. And well, I had to use that other pillow for something else, so yes, two new cushions in the same week!
