So I'm still plodding on with these cushions covers. No clear idea of what I'm doing, no pattern, nothing, just going with the flow.
It's a good job I quite like mismatched things because apart from the colours, they don't look anything like each other at all!!! Lol
So this is the one I'm making at the moment. I'll be putting a matching stripe on the other side of course but I haven't planned ahead any further than that yet.
I made this sort of granny triangle as I was thinking of using this somehow as the flap fastening. Not sure yet.
So onto other things.
I've had to put a word verification on my comment box, which I apologise for but unfortunately I'm getting lots of spam emails, so I'm hoping to prevent them from now on.
It's so annoying.
It's all on one of my older posts and I can't see how to block them. I seem to have blocked the actual comments on my blog but the emails are still arriving thick and fast. I've blocked the sender and the senders domain so it must be changing all the time and it looks like it's one of those computer generated things with links to sites they want you to visit.
Anyhow, I'm hoping this might sort things as it will hopefully stop them being able to access the comments.
Talking of spam, I'm off for a weeks holiday in a couple of weeks time, so I bought some internet allowance for my ipad so that I can spam up my blog with pictures galore, lol
We're taking our youngest son, my mum and an elderly friend of the family that we look after, with us.
So with 2 pensioners, one with heart problems and the other with dementia/ Alzhiemers, I think we will need to have relaxing evenings.
That being the case, I thought it would be good to take along some knitting or crochet or both!! Lol
Most people spend time debating which clothes to take away, me, I'm just like yeah whatever, they'll do. But when it comes to which project/s to take, it's a completely different ball game. Much careful thought and debating with myself is the order of the day. lol
Priorities and all that!!
:-)
I love the colors of your cushion covers. The colors are like a garden. How brave of you to just wing it and create your own pattern. Congrats on going on holiday. I hope you have a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lorri,
DeleteI'm not sure if it was brave really, might end up really regretting not using proper patterns, lol
Still a week and a half until the holiday but I'm definitely ready for it.
:)
Have a lovely holiday. I think these cushions are going to be really precious. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteAgi!!
DeleteSo lovely to hear from you.
Thanks so much for reading my blog and leaving me a comment.
I must pop over to yours as well and see what you've been up to.
Take care!!

I like your cushion cover and granny triangle.
ReplyDeleteSpam is the bane of bloggers. lol
Have a nice holiday! Take lots of pictures. :)
Thanks Pam, I hope they turn out a bit presentable by the time I've finished fiddling around with them. It all seemed like a good idea to start with, I just hope I don't mess up, lol.

Good morning Kim, I think we as bloggers should use word verification, I personally haven't had any problems with G+ commenting but you're not the first to experience spam in this manner.
ReplyDeleteI think your cushions with all the same colour way but different designs will look fab, the colours will match and the designs will make them interesting.
Have a great holiday and choose projects that are portable lol xx
Hi Linda
DeleteSo far so good, no more spammy emails I'm glad to say.
I'm not sure my idea of portable projects and hubby's match up somehow, lol ;)
The cushion covers are looking very nice! Enjoy your holiday away....and yes, finding the right project(s) to take is far, far more important than clothes anyway! ((hugs))
ReplyDeleteThanks Stitchy!!
DeleteI knew you'd all feel the same, lol
