Busy busy!!

Here it is May and I have done a horrible job about keeping my blog updated.
I have been busy crocheting animals and I also made my FIRST crochet baby blanket. I came across a beautiful pattern for a granny square blanket, via Daisy Cottage Designs

My sister in law asked me to make a blanket for her new nephew and I jumped on the chance. I sent her the link for the blanket and she loved the pattern and colors (Lion Brand Cotton Ease in Snow, Seaspray and Stone). 

The tutorial was SUPER easy to understand and it turned out beautifully. The only thing I changed was the white edging around the quilt. I couldn't get mine to look as good as Lauren's so I just made up my own. 

I can't wait to make another one of these lovely blankets!!! This one measures at 30" x 30" and I bought 2 skeins of each color (ball weight was 3.5 oz each).


Happy Creating!! ~ Amanda
