Granny Square Cushion

 I bought a copy of Let's Get Crafting (issue 43) whilst we were on our hols and made the 1st granny square with the free wool provided with the magazine.
 When we returned home I decided instead of the lap blanket the magazine intended the squares for I would make a cushion cover for one of the cushions in our caravan.  I made 3 more squares, bordering them in white. I joined them together, doing a few rounds of white then blue then white again.
I was lucky enough to have plenty of white wool in my Stash and even more fortunate to have a blue which exactly matched the blue provided with the magazine.
I made a stripey buttoned down back for the cushion cover and voila! 
When I get chance I think I will make one of the other granny square designs into another cover for our caravan :-)
