Have you all heard about the great granny along? I absolutely love the sewn square design based on the classic crochet granny square. I was a little bummed that I could not participate since my sewing skills need great improvement, but then I realized "duh!" I can make real granny squares. So my mom (HappyLittleCottage) and I decided to do a little granny along together. She is doing the sewn granny squares and I am doing crocheted grannies, so it's a granny along within a granny along :)
She picked out the fabric and I did my best to match up the colors. I am
using my new favorite acrylic yarn... Hobby Lobby's "I love this yarn,
in aqua, light yellow, red, medium pink, and leaf green.

I was reading your mom's blog about this only to learn that you are mother and daughter. How fun! I'm actually doing the sewn grannies! It will be fun to watch your progress.
ReplyDeleteThe colors are great! These are the colors I want to use for my next afghan.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I always love the colors you use in your designs. Everything screams "happy" with all your trademark brights. Quilting is something I'd like to do one day too. I've even collected fabric to get started on, but that's one of my "maybe someday" things. like many crafters, I take on may more than I'll ever do in my lifetime!
