Hello,
Time for Tuesday's Tallies. I have 41 squares all made and joined together. I have been working on this for 21 days. Not too bad when you consider I have moved house in the last week. Here are my photos for the week.
Sorry, but I am not showing more than the floor of our new house until it is finished. Lol. Here are some closer shots of the squares.
I have been sewing the ends in as I go, except when I join with the cream. I finish a row and then go back and sew in. I am using the join as you go method and it is nice and quick.
Here is the last photo for today.
I have 2 rows of 20 squares done and one for the third row. There will
be 18 rows of 20 squares to make one big blanket for our bed. I got the
inspiration from my friend, Tracy. She was my Christmas Swap partner
with the
We Love Lucy group. We became good friends and continue to talk
all the time. She saw a blanket
here and wanted to make one. Tracy
doesn't have a blog though. Maybe she will share hers on
Ravelry. I am
loving this blanket though.
Thank goodness for
Ravelry. I love that site.
Gingerbread Girl started the
One-A-Day group there and she has a link party every Tuesday. Go check out her blog to see what everyone else is working on.
That is it for me for today. Moving has made me assess my stash situation. I will share tomorrow.
looking forward to seeing your stash collection, will it beat mine lol
ReplyDeleteWe will have to compare. I thought I had been so good this year about not buying too much yarn. Ha.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive considering you have moved house too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, the crochet is keeping me sane.
DeleteLooking great there :) I've never tried join as you go but I must try it next time I make a blanket.
ReplyDeleteThe floor is looking good too ;) x
Join as you go is my favorite way to granny now. It takes a little practice, but it is worth it.
DeleteIt's looking fab, love the colours. You've done amazing as you've moved as well in the last week. Deb xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you, getting close to being unpacked too.
DeleteLove your granny squares! It's coming along. Glad you got moved and your floor looks lovely. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are sweet. I do like our floor too. They pulled up the carpet and underneath was a nice hardwood floor. When I looked at the house the first time, I was nicely surprised to see it.
Deletewow that many squares and you moved house that is amazing. Love the blanket. xx
ReplyDeleteThank you, the blanket is my new favorite thing.
DeleteWell done! That's great going considering the move!
ReplyDeleteThe hard part is over. Now we are unpacking and I get my crochet time in the morning before I go to work.
