I had absolutely no idea what I was going to make when I started. I only knew that it was going to be cream colored and have flowers on it to break up the design with all the starbursts on the other pillow covers and the blanket I made for my bed. I ordered a few books with flowers in them to crochet but they did not arrive in time and I got impatient. That is when I was inspired by the flower wall hanging on Attic 24 but without all the doodads to make it hang and for it to be a wall decoration. You can view the pattern here. The two flowers on the left I used the chain 41 for the stem like Lucy wrote in her pattern. The taller one on the middle right was a chain 51 and the one on the far right I chained on 31 for the stem. This way I would have various heights. It was a fun project and a great way to use up scraps. For the base of the pillow I measured the pillow seam to seam and once I knew the width, I then did the following to add texture and thickness so the weight of whatever I would sew on would not droop. I alternated a single crochet with a double crochet (every other stitch) all the way across. Then when I turned, where there was a single crochet on the previous row, I made a double crochet, and the next stitch where there was a double crochet on the row below, I made a single crochet. It is the crochet version of knit 1 pearl 1, but in this case it is crochet single, crochet double, repeat repeat repeat.
