To welcome spring…

Helloooo lovelies,

Lovely weather today and I’m in a lovely springy mood too πŸ™‚ hello hello hello again! It’s so lovely to have you here πŸ™‚

and it was soooo lovely reading all your sweet messages on my last post….

THANK YOUUU!! thank you all for every word written πŸ™‚

Yesterday I finished my daisies cushion….a very simple and cute rectangle cushion…

I felt so in love with it that I took it with me to the bed hehe πŸ™‚

I crocheted this little cushion using the leftover yarns of my stylecraft special DK (yes I still have leftovers from my MONSTER πŸ™‚ )

I crocheted one side and hand sew it to an old fabric cushion … (yes I know I am a lazy woman ;))

I have now to leave you….I’m going to make some paintings and I am very happy to hold again a brush and to mix colors and put them on a white background πŸ™‚

Have a colorful day !

Fairy tale blanket :)

Good morniiiiiiiiiiiiiing,

Well well well my fairy tale is finished…done…terminΓ©e….Can I say FINALLY finished? Yes, kind of… because at the very end I was like: “I want to finish you because I can not stand you anymore on my knees!!!” πŸ™‚ but the result is amazing and I am proud πŸ™‚

Lets have some pics…shall we?

I started this blanket in my old house on the 15th of January…and blogged about it here…

2 months and a half crocheting squares… a total of 180 squares…

…180 squares joined on-the-go using this pattern

…180 squares crocheted with a 4 mm hook and a wonderful 100% acrylic yarn called “Nako vizon” (you can see the yarn I used in this post)

Dim: 145x180cm which is big enough to snuggle under… πŸ™‚

…a blanket made with memories…a “move” to a new house and a new beginning…

… like a flower meadow…in a spring morning πŸ™‚

I think this blanket will be very much loved πŸ™‚

so, what do you think? Are you, just like myself, totally crazy in love? πŸ˜€

A very last pic before leaving you my dear….Wishing you a wonderful monday πŸ˜‰

Thank you for your visit!

Kisses,

Sucrette

Two new wip…yes, two :)

Hello lovelies,

I should now be finishing my fairy tale blanket, but I could not resist beginning two projects…

I promise to you that I’ll have a “tadaa” fairy tale post very soon, very very soon but I have to show you what’s on my creative table right now πŸ˜‰

A rectangle cushion for my living room…crocheted with the leftover Stylecraft special DK yarns…and it turning out lovely…

and…

a new blanket (yes another blanket, I can not stop crocheting blankets πŸ™‚ ) This one I am making it as a gift for a dear friend of mine who’s in love with grannies πŸ™‚

I’m using fresh colors and making the last round of every square with the off-white (very light beige) color…It is turning out beautiful … and I can feel that it will become a lovely blanket…

I am using this yarn for the “grannies love”…It is a 100% acrylic yarn…very soft with beautiful colors…

I’m in love with this Turkish brand πŸ™‚

Thank you for your visit today, It is always a pleasure having you here at Le monde de Sucrette πŸ˜‰

Have a beautiful day!

Because a blanket without a border is not a blanket (2)

Good morning sweeties,

I finished doing the border of another blanket of mine … This blanket was made by my mom as a gift on our wedding in 2004 so it is a very loved blanket, mostly used by my husband because it is our biggest blanket so it can cover him entirely when he’s watching TV πŸ™‚ I’ll show it to you today with its new blue border …

Here it is in the living room surrounded by crochet, crochet everywhere πŸ™‚I tried making the border by crocheting grannies with picots and it turned out very nice…

Here it is in all its glory with its new blue border πŸ™‚

I also enjoy showing you the environment where this loved blanket lives…in the living room…my favorite place in the house πŸ™‚

I just love this big room where all the family members love to snuggle under blankets and enjoy little pleasures life is offering πŸ™‚ It just make me smile looking at the pics…

Wanna see what’s on the shelves?…Let’s have a peek shall we? πŸ˜‰

and some close ups…

As you maybe already noticed I love small objects and cats in particular…I have a collection of them and you can see cats everywhere in the house πŸ™‚

and I love this photo frame a gift from my sister πŸ™‚ Remembering warms the heart πŸ™‚

Two more pics of the blanket before leaving you my dear…

I enjoyed soooo much sharing with you these pics, hope you enjoyed them too…

Now I am working on two new wip πŸ˜‰ I’ll leave them as a suprise for you for next time…

Have a beautiful day,

Sucrette

Tissue box: the pattern

Hello my friend,

This is for you today how I made the tissue box cover…Hope you understand my charts πŸ˜‰ (I use Corel draw to make them, it is a graphic design software)

To begin you have to make a small classic granny square crocheted with 2 rounds with the same color…

and then crochet a second square and join it to the first as you go, like on this pic:

and then you continue making squares and joining them as you go as this pic:

50 granny squares in total joined as you go….choosing randomly the colors πŸ˜‰

That’s it my dear πŸ™‚

You can also decorate your tissue box by crocheting a round of dc and then another round of small shells on the top of your box…

Enjoy!

Thank you all for your visit and your sweet messages here! I really really LOVE reading them,

Have a great sunday πŸ™‚
