Designing Afghans for Faith Mission

Little Princess Afghan DesignBright Pink (hot pink), bright blue, and a variegated mix of same laid out here in a pretty traditional design (most unusual for me, lol) with colors going diagonally. These crocheted squares were all donated by our friend Liz (minnesoda in the Ville). Most of you know I like to name ghans and have dubbed this one, "Little Princess". I can see a little girl loving this, after all the colors are perfect for a young girl. With 25 squares here, the size should also be a wonderful size for a young girl to curl up under. I'll be adding borders to each square before joining which will increase the size some, and currently am thinking of a wider then normal border....but, we'll see how things progress with yarn stash color and quantity. Please stay tuned.

Been busy working on several ghans previously designed, and have been busy designing more with all your squares and rectangles.

Few more days left folks for Sock it To Me! Please check in to see what our April focus will be.

  1. Liz did a super job on those squares - so pretty!! I've been a lurker for a while and have been quiet (which is SO NOT my nature!), but it's beautiful craftsmanship like this that'll bring me outta my shell - Beautiful! What a talented group this is - I love checking in every day to see what's posted!

  2. Glad you're doing more then lurky now psmflowerlady, love having you leave comments. I tried to do so on your page, but don't see comments open? Agree Liz did a beautiful job here with these squares. Stay tuned for the next phase with them, and others.

  3. Oh this will be so pretty! What are you planning to use for the assembly? Can't wait to see the finished product. Always a pleasure to look at them. You should do a coffee table book. :-)

  4. Thanks Sandie, off white; though like the design that's a bit odd for me. lol

    By coffee table book, do you mean a book of pictures from my ghans?

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
