Retro Afghan for Homeless Families Foundation


 Some of you might have already seen this awesome afghan Tristi assembled for us from donated squares.  Posted it on facebook the day she passed it back to me; but also wanted to get it here in que and get it tabulated.  We named this one Retro because it reminds me of the kitchens back in the 50's.

The ghans change so much from original design to completion.  Edges, colors, joins...make such a difference.
