Disorganised crafting...

So after focussing on one project last week, the plans for this week was to continue, picking out flower patterns to embellish the cushion front.
But there was a set back, I have not been able to find my crochet flowers book at all!! Anyone would think we live in a disorganised mess... Oh wait, we do!!
So that threw me, I was stuck, I didn't know what to do...
On the plus side, whilst searching through boxes and the garage I did come across my long lost stuffing.
So a project did manage to get completed, just not the one I expected.
Remember my Owlie, that lay flat and abandoned, he has now fully come to life.



And another surprise I found another WIP that i'd forgotten about, Mummy and Baby Owl.



In the time that I was deliberating what to make I paid attention to my mood blanket. I had stopped joining the squares, and realised the reason why, was that I wasn't keen on a couple of squares, so I decided to change them for the better, sticking with the original colours of course...



The squares on the left are the new versions, and i'm much happier with them, so I have now got my joining all up to date.



And I had a great find in our local BHF store, this lovely seat, which opens up, for just £5. I'm not sure whether to revarnish it and keep it its original colour or whether to give it a shabby chic make-over? Either way it will of course be having a crochet, cushion top...



This weeks mood square.
Grey = feeling melancholy, lilac = relaxed, pink = giggles and cuddles with hubby
