Flower cushion cover

                I've already made some cushion covers using simple granny square pattern. And I just wanted to make a different one. I have been searching for a pattern all these days. Finally I got it! The Maybelle flower square pattern by Annette - MyRoseValley.

             
                 Once I start making it I just can't stop. She had made the pattern pretty easy to follow even for a beginner. The picture tutorial is great.

(Excuse the blurred photos)
The pattern is here- http://myrosevalley.blogspot.in/2013/06/maybelle-square-crochet-pattern.html.
 Thanks to the Swedish girl. :) 

HAPPY FLOWERS

After long gloomy rainy days we have some glorious weather this week. I think the monsoon is over and spring has come at last! 

The festive season is upon us. In our garden the flowers are ready to welcome Onam. 

Marigold, Dahlias, Rose, ten o’clock flowers (portulaca), Gladiolus, Periwinkle…. The spring is smiling with beautiful flowers in our garden. Joyous birds are singing everywhere.

Inspired by nature I crocheted some floral curtain tie backs. The pattern of flower is from http://www.pompomemporium.com/content/crocheted-flowers-roses.

There are lots of reasons to feel good and excited. But I have some worries deep inside. I just want someone to hold me and tell me everything will be alright. And I am extremely optimistic that everything will be alright in the end.

May we all get a little sunshine in our lives also.

wish you all a very happy and prosperous Onam.

Crochet- Drawstring Pouch

And finally I've made it. A small drawstring pouch. 

Being a very beginner in crochet it is a great achievement for me. 

The pattern is from  http://cobblerscabin.wordpress.com/ 

It looks cool. isn't it? :)

I have always had an interest in crochet and other crafts, but i never had the time to learn.
 Crochet is not popular here. 
Nobody around me knows how to crochet, so this is myself teaching.

This is my first work.

This cell phone pouch is made with star stitch and this is my first attempt with star stitch.
I know these are not perfect, but I  love them.
