I was so excited to participate
in the 'Beautiful Blogger Blanket 2013' project.
I haven’t
used a lot of cotton in my crocheting except for using some bright green and
yellow/gold to make my grand daughter some head bands she needed. Soo I set out to buy some balls of 100% cotton
which was much more difficult than you
would think as it is winter and cotton is considered a summer yarn. I could only find four different colours, luckily
they were lovely pinks and purple. I
had so much fun making the squares. I
spent ages looking at different squares on the Internet and ended up
making the first square
that I found on The Lazy Hobby Hoppers blog
I loved the beautifully flowery
granny square on Rosehip’s Blog, so
much, I made
150 of them (still to be joined together), but I added a row of petals
and so this pattern was used for square three and the fourth square I used my own pattern.

I found a lovely pattern for
coasters which cried out to be made using the left over cotton from the
Beautiful Blanket's squares.
I am thrilled with how they have turned out and I am sure i will be making more in the future.
Have a fantastic day

Maybe I will have to label a storage box
Christmas 2013 and start stashing potential
Christmas presents.
Have a fantastic day
