Last night, at approximately 1.30am, I finally finished my latest magnum opus to date: a crochet cushion that took me 9 whole months to complete. Never thought it would take so long when I first bought the yarn in January from Romni Wools. And here I am, all these months later, and so many changes have occurred in that short period of time: new friends, new house, new creativity so-big-it’s-about-to-explode, new horizons conquered and new pets.
The R stands for my surname – Robledo – and I got the idea of cross-stitching over crochet from this fantastic book.
I used all my leftover yarn to make the backing. There’s a little history to it too as I taught a few people how to crochet by helping me finish it. Some crochet pros also contributed as it’s a highly addictive craft. All in all I’d say about 5 lovely ladies helped 🙂

Espero que no te hayas pasado los 9 meses crocheteando sin parar… Me gusta mucho.

It’s gorgeous! Know what? The R is my favorite letter in the alphabet, I wonder why? 😉
Tu pisito está quedando divino, a ver si hago fotos de mi nuevo salón verde y de la escalera de casa con el nuevo papel, pero debo hacerlas ya, antes de que mis hijos pongan todo otra vez asquerosillo. Besos XXX
It’s wonderful.
Thank you for the lovely messages! 🙂
