The above picture is of the colours that I'm using to make my waterlily blanket, previously posted about here. I've done a few more squares now, as you can see below!
My first plan was to do a flower every other square - but after doing one, I decided to cut back on the flowers, or I would probably have never finished the blanket!! Therefore there will be a few plain squares between each flower square - for the sake of my sanity! (They are not too bad, but some bits of the flower are a bit fiddly!)
More colourfulness comes in the form of a print from Caroline Rose. Yes, I've treated myself AGAIN!! (I find the 'treating myself as a reward for getting a new job' excuse is really not getting old! Fabulous!)
I'm sure that most of you read the Attic 24 blog - and will have seen this post. Well, after reading it I had to go and explore Caroline Rose's etsy shop - and I just couldn't resist this print:
(It's still in it's protective plastic - and I need to find a good frame for it, and a place for it to go!)
To be honest, it was a bit of a nightmare trying to pick which one to go for - I loved all of them! The one that Lucy of Attic 24 commissioned was very close in the running, plus a few others!
Well, it's late - time for bed!! Night night...
I love your yarn! Your blanket will be so pretty!
