The Last Bedspread I Crocheted

Back in 2013 (which I can't believe is almost 3 years ago), I blogged about starting another bedspread. Well, I actually finished it after a year but I only found time to share it now!

I posted this "teaser" before, but I never showed the entire spread :) I used Red Heart Baby Sheen. Forgive me for saying this but I already forgot what hook size I used. Of all pieces of information, I forgot to list this one down. I think I used between 3mm-4mm. I wasn't also able to take note how many skeins of Red Heart Baby Sheen I used. This yarn, by the way, had already been discontinued by Red Heart so this makes this bedspread really special (and unique, I guess).
It's made up of 266 motifs sewn together through the back loops of the last round of each motif. It is enough to cover a queen-sized bed. 
I got the motif pattern from the "300 Classic Blocks for Crochet Projects" book by Linda P. Schapper. The spread is made of just one motif design but I played with various combinations for different rounds of the same color palette.
I love the layers (and textures) created by the front and back post double crochets as well as the popcorn stitches. They made the different colors in each round pop. 
I'm not really sure if I'll be able to make another bedspread soon. It depends, if that "itch" comes back for such a huge project :)

If you want to get the last (and rare) remaining skeins of Red Heart Baby Sheen, you can buy them online HERE. You must be warned though that there will no longer be restocks of this yarn in our store, so make each stitch count!

  10. The last bedspread I crocheted was a lovely patchwork of bright, cheerful colors. Although I haven't had much time for crafting lately, I have been focused on finding Instapage web design services for my upcoming business venture. With their professional services, I'm confident my website will be just as colorful and eye-catching as my crochet creations.

  12. Just like with crocheting a bedspread, writing an essay requires careful consideration of the materials used. When it comes to perfecting your essay, you may want to consider enlisting the help of an essay editing service UK. They can provide valuable insights and ensure that your essay is polished to perfection. Similarly, when crocheting a bedspread, the materials used can vary depending on personal preference and the desired level of warmth. Some may prefer wool or acrylic yarn for a cozy, warm bedspread, while others may opt for cotton yarn for a lighter weight option. Ultimately, it all comes down to individual preferences and the desired outcome.

  13. I recently finished crocheting the last bedspread, and I must say it was quite the project! It's adorned with intricate patterns that remind me of a cozy autumn vibe. Speaking of which, I'm thinking of pairing it with my Halloween jacket for some spooky season charm. The bedspread's warm colors will make my room feel so inviting. Crocheting is such a rewarding hobby, and I can't wait to start my next project! Halloween jacket

    The Last Bedspread I Crocheted holds a special place in my heart. It was more than just a creative project; it was a labor of love and patience. As I meticulously looped each stitch, I couldn't help but reflect on the countless hours spent honing this craft. It's not just a bedspread; it's a tapestry of memories, a testament to the soothing rhythm of crochet hooks and the satisfaction of completing a cherished piece. With each delicate pattern, it weaves a story of creativity and devotion, making it a true masterpiece that warms both my bed and my soul.
