Crochet Cushion Progress, Slow but Progress!

I keep picking this project up and putting it down (I think I good at multi-tasking working on many projects at the same time but actually it takes so long to get anything finished!!)  I have so many beautiful  crochet projects on the go - what is a girl to do??  I have crocheted the squares together for one side of my cushion.  Note to self: Try finishing one project at a time - it might just work!

I thought I would crochet a different design for the other side of my cushion, using a different colour for row - all lovely and colourful to brighten up my kitchen bench!  All that is left to do now is crochet the two together and then decide on which buttons to use!!

Hopefully I will get this finished some time soon!!
I have a busy weekend this weekend and unfortunately there is just no room for crafting :-(

Project Crochet Kitchen Bench

I purchased a beautiful bench from eBay when we moved into our new house for the kitchen and I keep promising to make some cushions and make it look more homely!  At the moment it becomes a bit of a dumping ground for anything I cannot be bothered to find a home for!!

My thinking is it is a great bench to sit on and drink tea whilst gazing at the oven patiently waiting for yummy cakes to cook!! So this week I have started making a cushion cover, using up all my odd bits of stash and using bright colours to cheer up the magnolia corner.

At the weekend I am on a mission to find a piece of foam to make a seat cushion and then the next  job will be to crochet some more squares or maybe even circles to cover it.
