Giant Sunflower Pillow
A bloom to brighten the room.🌻
Made with leftover yarn and some online inspiration.
The Pattern
I used the No-Sew Sunflower Pillow as a guide. You can get the pattern for free on wondercrochet.blog. Besides the written pattern, she also has an instructional video on her Youtube.com.
Materials
I used leftovers of the jumbo yellow yarn from my dino adventure 🦖 for the petails. The bulky brown yarn for the center came from one of my Value Village “mysterious bags” (and it was a pain to disentangle!). Worked all with a 9 mm crochet hook. I stuffed the petals with polyfill, and for the center I used whatever was left of the mysterious brown yarn.😅
Final result
My flower ended up a little bigger with 12 petals instead of 10. Because of this I had to also make a larger center circle. But I just added a couple of more rows to the original instructions and it was fine.😉 My finished pillow is about 25 inches across (the original pattern is around 19 inches).
