patchwork pillow

I've been a crochet machine this past week. A few pillows made and a couple blankets started and some almost finished.

My favorite part of every night is curling up in bed with my puppy, netflix, and my hook and yarn with a couple hours of complete relaxation. It has been such a great stress reliever lately.


Here's the latest pillow. It is just a simple granny square pattern made with 100% cotton. I am loving the happy colors!


Hope you all have a great weekend!

    lovely colours for a cold day. I'm half way through my first granny blanket. The larger the rounds the longer it seems to take! Amanda x

    A woman after my own heart. Puppy love (Sophie is so cute), some hooky goodness and netflix. Nothing could be finer. I love your work and all the colors you use. Your pillow is beautiful and that lovely blanket you should in your last posting. Would love to know what colors and yarn you used to make that blanket. Thanks for sharing your work and being an inspiration.
