Blooming Flower Cushion by Lucy @ Attic24 xoxo
These are two of my four projects I have going at one time! These make me smile & I just love the yarns I am working with on both! Needless to say, they are my favorite projects so far as well!
The African flowers are being hooked in the Tahki Cotton Classic yarn with a 3.50mm US E/4 hook.
And the Blooming Flower I am using a cotton/nylon blend I purchased recently online. They compared it to Borraco Weekender. I really really like it. It does split a little easy so you have to watch your hook, but the stitch definition & the feel of it is sublime!  
Oh yeah, I am using a 4.00mm US G/6 hook for this one.
