Ripples Cushion

Helllooooooo!! I have finished my third cushion.. As you can see it is made of colourful ripples.

 Iam so happy just looking at them!!Makes our sofa so cheerful and welcoming!!

The one in the back is my next cushion. It will be cushion #3 because cushion #1 ( with the frills removed )  has been claimed by husband. He has kept it in our car.

Cute Cute Caterpillar!!

I told you about a CAL/KAL I have joined to make amigurumis or toys. And you know what, I have finished making it, though we are supposed to start making only by the end of this month. Yeah!!I did not pay much attention to the dates. Iam very absent minded these days ( or always? ).

 So I think I will make one more, choose a different pattern. This one, a very colourful caterpillar, has been snatched away by my little one.

 I had to beg him to let me take pictures. Can you suggest a name for this cute guy?

These are perfect for instant gratification. They can be made so fast and the result is great!!
Now let me go and choose another pattern ( there are so many cute patterns out there ).

Inga bag

My Inga bag is almost done. It needs to be lined. And those who know me must have already guessed that it has been postponed indefinitely.

Pattern here. This was made as a part of a Bag CAL/KAL in Ravelry's South Asian Crafters Group.

I have joined another CAL/KAL in the same group to make amigurumis. It will be my first attempt. Wish me luck!!

Granny Cushion

Yaaay!! Finally after some time I have managed to finish something. Remember my cute little grannies from last post? They have been transformed into this. It involved something that I keep postponing always, that is sewing. But yesterday I just sat and finished it.

My sewing machine is on strike. So I have hand sewn the cushion backing. Not bad right?

A glimpse of what I am working on right now, apart from the bag I blogged about earlier. This is, no prize for guessing, cushion # 3. I ripped apart the ripples I was working on before. I was not happy with the way it was turning out. This one, I like.

Thank you!!

A very big thank you to all who have passed prayers and wishes for my mother's health. She looks much better now. And Iam still at home with her. But now since the stress is less I get more time for crocheting. Have been making these cute little grannies.

 They will be turned into another cushion!! Yes, I can't get over the "cushion craziness"

Before I leave let me wish you all a very Happy Easter!!

Back after a long time!!

I have been away from blogging for a while. Had to be with my mother who was not doing very well. But now she is showing signs of improvement! Praying to god she gets well soon. In between we have shifted to India, so I was busy with that too.I don't think I will be active here for some more time, but will take a peek whenever I can. Because this place is one of my main sources of inspiration.

I was crocheting in between all this to remain sane. First is this bag. Wanted to make Inga's Haekelbeutel since a long time. Making it as a part of a bag KAL/CAL in the South Asian Crafters Group in Ravelry. Iam done with the squares. Now need to find fabric for the lining and sew them up.

I was also working on a cushion. Ripples in rainbow colours. Iam done with the crochet part. Sewing part is left.

Flower Tray Mat

Finally, I decided I will just join my flowers to make a tray mat sort of thing. There are 20 flowers in total.

When joined there was two much space in between for a cushion (which I had planned to turn them into originally)

But all is well that ends well right? It can adorn my side table or my tea tray. Lets see!! Wishing you all a happy weekend!!
