Cushions, cushions and more cushions!
Goooooooooood morniiiiiiiiiing lovely people!
It’s a BOY!!! Yes, I’m expecting a boy and I’m really really happy about it 🙂 Some of you my friends suggested to keep the surprise for the birth but I can not …I’m too curious 🙂 I can not wait the whole 9 months to know if it will be a boy or a girl 🙂 I have to prepare crochet things too 😉
So, after my two girls (6 and 4 years old) I am very happy that number 3 is a boy 🙂 and I had tears in my eyes when I saw him moving inside me and hearing his heart beats …(I am sooo emotive when I’m pregnant … it is sometimes embarrasing in front of strangers 😀 )
Thank you so much for all your birthday greetings and your lovely messages 🙂 I am sooo lucky to have you all 🙂
Today, I will show you two new cushions I made lately 🙂 Yes, two 🙂 It’s cushionnnnn tiiiiiiiiiiiime 🙂
The first one is a patchwork crocheted one …I showed it to you as a wip…here it is: done 😉
I love it! It is sooo cute…don’t you think?
and then I made a second one inspired by the talented Lucy in her lovely post HERE. A fabric patchwork one ….Oh I am sooo proud of myself 🙂 This is the first time I ever made a patchwork and I love it too … see?
It is not perfect…It is made of small pieces of left over fabric and if you look closer you’ll discover that it is not perfect at all 🙂 but it is a first attempt and, no matter what you’ll say, I am proud of it 😀 hehe
I’ve even added some decorations 🙂
But don’t ask me about the zipper…hahaha…I will not show it to you … It is well hidden and not so nice to look at 🙂
But I promise, that next time, It will be better 🙂
but I love them together…two patchwork cushions…one crochet and one fabric…I thought about making one mixed (crocheted and fabric squares) but I don’t know what will it look like … have to try it…
I’m very happy that I don’t have anymore any beige cushions (the ones that comes with the sofas)… All are transformed 😉
And this is my latest purchase (the fabric one with the button in the middle)
Oh how I love cushions! I can’t help myself bying and making new ones…It is addictive 🙂
Have to go now… I’ll be far from you my sweeties in the coming week…I’m taking a break with Hubby to recharge our batteries 😉
The girls are staying in their grandparents house and we’ll be on a cruise (Barcelona (Spain)- Roma (Italy) – Florence (Italy) and Cannes France) and then back to Barcelona between May11 and May 18 😀
I am sooooo thrilled about this trip ! I’ll miss you all! But will come back very soon with lots of pics!
Kisses!

Congratulations!! Wonderful to expect a boy 🙂
I love your pillows, they are all beautiful. Have a very nice day,
Love from Holland,

Wow love the cushions. Congratulations!!! I found out in advance and I liked knowing. I also had a 3-d scan done at 28weeks and saw what he looked like. It was perfect because we had time to decide on names and knew he would match his name. After 27 weeks you can tell what they will look like.
Congrats!! Love the new cushions. X
Thats such wonderful news Angie, congratulations!
Your cushions are beautiful 🙂 I too am in the process of revamping the boring cushions that came with our sofa x
Enjoy your week away 🙂 x
Congrats on your new boy!
Enjoy your break and relax 🙂
ConGRatuLAtions!! 😀 A son…..aww…how very special and the girls will just adore him and torment him, dressing him up as a princess, but oh, he will be loved! 😀
Your cushions are aDOrable 😀
Have a wonderful holiday, you deserve it very much 😉
Blessings to you all 🙂

Angie,
Congratulations for your boy, this is really great news. Your crafts are always great, love colours, and your cushions are simply beautiful. Have a great time in your trip, I am sure you will find good weather and more colour to inspire you more and more in your crafts. Kisses and hugs from Ivani, São Paulo/Brasil!
Congratulations on your news that you’re having a baby boy! I love both your cushions – they’re both very pretty and very cute 🙂 Have a wonderful relaxing cruise with your hubby. Maggie xx
Hi Angie….Woooooo a boy! Many, many congratulations to you and your hubby! Both cushions are gorgeous… I especially love that little stripy patch in the material one… I wonder what material that is? You will be recovering the sofa in crochet next… now there’s a wonderful idea! Enjoy your cruise…relax and grow that baby peacefully… can’t wait to hear about it when you get back, hugs, Jill x
toutes mes félicitations à toi et ton mari ! UN PETIT GARCON !!
Je suppose que tes filles sont ravies, elles vont chouchouter leur “petit prince”….
gros bisous et porte toi bien
Betty
Félicitations pour ce petit garçon,les filles vont être contentes d’avoir un petit frère.

Hola Angie. Me alegra mucho que sea niño y que todo vaya muy bien.
Los cojines son preciosos y te han quedado muy bien.
Y que tengas un buen crucero, si visitas Barcelona te gustará mucho es mi ciudad y te la recomiendo.
besos
Your cushions are lovely – so colourful and bright. I also love that blanket on the back of your sofa. Have a wonderful time away on your cruise. xoxox
Congratulations on having a little boy – think of all the different kinds of toys he’ll want!! I wanted to know what sex my baby was because I wanted to refer to him or her not just ‘the baby’. Your cushions are lovely. I think a crochet / fabric combination would be really interesting. How would you join the squares? Have a lovely cruise – it sound fantastic. Lily. xxx
Bonjour ,félicitations pour le petit garçon à venir…jolis coussins toujours colorés…bonne croisière et beaucoup de bonheur..bon mercredi.
Congratulations on your son on the way!
I’ve just started following your lovely and cheerful blog a few weeks ago and admire all your beautiful crafty things. I also crochet, sew, etc. and like to read other blogs for inspiration and spirit lifting. I’m enjoying this post especially since I’m currently working on new cushions and throw for my sofa at the moment which involves both crochet and patchwork and sewing. Your came out perfect and really fit together colour-wise. 🙂
Keep up all of your great work!
Congratulations on your little boy!!! And have a wonderful, wonderful time on your cruise…sounds like a great way to relax before life gets extra busy with the arrival of your newest bundle of joy. 🙂
Your cushions are so very lovely–I adore the crocheted patchwork! And I’m very impressed with your first attempt at patchwork sewing–I think you did a fantastic job, and the results are so pretty and so smile-inducing! 🙂

CONGRATULATIONS on your boy news!!! Glad everything is well with the little monkey..! LOVE your cushions!!! I’m so jealous about your break…..you lucky lucky fish!! Hope to see lots of pics when you get back! lol xxx
It is very Arabian and Girly to have plenty of cushions around. I love them! particularly the fact the put the right color to the cream sofa.
Lovely!
So much fun. One of your cushions has little diamonds in the center of the square. Could you share one of these days with us how you made it? Thanks. Have a wonderful day and enjoy preparing boyish crochet things. I just made a blanket for my husband a few weeks ago and he loves it. Thanks for your inspirations.
Congratulations on the baby news! How thrilling – for your daughters too to have a baby brother 🙂
Enjoy your trip – it sounds wonderful.
I love all your cushiony goodness – inspiring!
Smiles, DianeM
Congratulations!! Hope all goes well for you and baby in the coming months. Cushions are comforting, don’t you think? The ones you’ve made are all so cute! Have a nice vacation trip.
Congrats!!!

Hello, Angie! Congratulations to you and your family on the news that you are expecting a baby boy!!! How exciting!!! Your husband must be ready to buy him a rugby ball already. LOL Your daughters will be good mommy helpers! 🙂 I love your crochet and patchwork pillows! They both look beautiful! Enjoy your cruise vacation with your hubby! Life is good!
Maggie
I love your blog, i love your colors! Can you say what brand of yarn you are using? I have learned so much from your blog, thank you thank you thank you
Congrats on your baby boy to be! Your cushions are beautiful — so much better than plain ones for sure. Have a wonderful cruise. My hubby wants to take one like that but I’m not so sure — only if we can stay close to the coastline. I’m not one for being in the middle of the ocean. Plus, I get seasick easily. Hugs, Tammy
Congratulations to you. I am the same, two girls and expecting a boy. It did make it easier in some ways, didn’t have to go through that awful choosing names stage, as a boy’s name had been chosen years ago and wasn’t going to change!
Your cushions look great. You know I haven’t made any at all, and I keep thinking that I should, but I still haven’t gotten around to it!
Have a glorious time in the sun on that cruise, I wish that I was going too.
xXx Helen
Congratulations!! A boy, lovely. Those cushions are beautiful and so cheery. In the middle of doing the back of a cushion which is very very bright, nothing like what I normally do ☺
Felicitaciones por el niño!!!! , te deseo lo mejor, lo mejor!!!!! muy felices vacaciones, feliz descanso, te lo mereces, porque sos una persona excepcional
Los cojines divinos!!!!!!
Nos leemos pronto
Felicidades- Besos enormes- Anny
Congratulations on getting a boy! I have three boys and my last was finally a girl. Awesome to get both! Have a wonderful trip!
félicitations
moi aussi j’ai 3 enfants mais 1 garçon et 2 filles.
plein de bonheur pour vous tous
Saw your Cushions on the Flickr group. Lovely. What got to me was the way they ‘popped’ on your sofa. It makes it look amazing.
Félicitations! Quel bonheur, un garçon après deux filles. Il va être chouchouté par ses soeurs. Bonnes vacances bien méritées.
A boy?! That’s so great! I myself am really fond of having boys! It will be so exciting to watch him grow into a man! And I think your girls will be thrilled about having a little baby brother! Congratulations!
Felicidades, Angie 🙂
You have to leave the cushions and start with baby (boy) clothes…

Cpngratulations for your baby boy!!! And I love those cushions!! Have a nice trip! :):) We’ll be waiting for you….
Me encantaron los almohadones, muy coloridos y variados. espero animarme yo también a esa explosión de colores.
You have such an eye for putting colors together. I’m very curious, do you have a method for this, or just a good eye? I LOVE all of the bright colors, and I wish that I had your gift for putting them together.
