      Thanks, Sue. That's a nice soft green color for Spring and pistachios: a healthy nut!

    Another fabulous tutorial Astri.....beautifully illustrated, thank you.
    I've just attached my 12 squares together using your method. I'll send you a photo tomorrow. Going to sew the ends in now.
    I'm loving your CAL :-)

    I did not have success when I first tried the roses. May have to give this a go again at another time. Unless I have that aha moment, sometimes things just don't work out for me no matter how many times I try. :/ Wishing you a fabulous Friday. Tammy

      Oh shoot, Tammy; that's too bad. Oh well, other things will come up and then perhaps if you come back to it, it will click.

    I've got all my squares stitched together now (I've made a bigger cushion with 16 squares) - can't wait to see how to attach them all!
