The Afghan Continued......

Hi

As my dt work for this weeks allsorts challenge i shared some Afghan squares i had made for a snuggly new blanket (that will take a while to finish). As i work until silly o'clock i have to make some things in advance for my challenges and was not convinced with the squares i had made

This is idea number 2 which i think i will be sticking with!


Obviously a work in progress with lots of ends to sew in and join and a few squares missing!

I'm saving all my wool scraps for the birds for nesting next year (not at all exctied about nearly having a garden)

WK 204 Allsorts - Anything but a card!

Hi

This week at Allsorts we have been challenged not to make a card, i thought i would share a new project i have started with you.  I am making an afghan blanket. Inspired by attic 24 and tiny tin birds blogs!

The beginning a lovely pile of rainbow coloured wool!


My progress so far is 5 squares - i chose granny squares and am trying to keep the centres yellow so they are like flower bursts


Only 100 squares required in total - how long till next winter :o)

It is very soft so will be lovely in my long awaited craft room
