Afghan Debut!

 

Hello dear friends!

I did not intend to take a long blog

break, but that's what happened!

 

I feel like I've been hibernating this winter,

but I look forward to sharing some of

the things I've been up to again!

 

 

I always get a bit overwhelmed with the

Christmas holidays and all the gifts I'm

making.

 

I was looking forward to showing you this

afghan that I made Lindsey for Christmas,

even if it is almost March!

 

 

It was a joy to make, although time consuming

since it's rows are all single crochet.

The color palet was yummy and the border

color is her favorite!

 

I had the idea as I was working on it, that

the rows needed to be broke up with some

decoration.  I made up the flowers as

I went along.

 

I also didn't know what kind of border to

put on until I got to it.  I found this pattern

for the ruffled border here and I think it

accented it perfectly!

 

"And let the beauty of the Lord our

God be upon us,

And establish the work of our

hands for us; 

Yes, establish the work of our hands."

- Psalm 90:17

 

Have a great day!

Love, Twyla
