Scandinavian Fabric Crocheted Pillow

Here's a pillow for our 
Scandinavian Farmhouse:

I generally stay away from brown...but this fabric...I could not resist.
Our drapes are sewn with this fabric.

Back to the pillow... 
It has tassels:
 First time I've ever made tassels. :-)
So fun!

It's a total of 6 (3 each side) 3D Granny Square Motifs.
Pattern found here.
Then it was widened with 3 dc rows on the top and bottom
of each side, then the sides were joined with sc.
A three button closure.
(Scandinavian button to boot!)
It sits on the rocking chair that once belonged to the NVO's grandmother.
 That came to us all the way from a Ranch in Estancia, New Mexico.

  And of course, there must be a friend for the pillow;
a fabric pillow
with a brown crocheted edge in shells:

Have a nice day and,

  1. How clever to have chosen the same colours as your curtains for your latest cushion! Your Scandinavian style farmhouse is looking so lovely. Is it close enough for you to go a stay there often from where you live now?

  2. What a beautiful pillow! I love the colors and how you have made it so fitting for your home. The little buttons are the perfect touch! I really like the fabric pillow with the beautiful crochet edging, too. Really beautiful!
