How fast do Tuesdays come around? This last week has flashed past as usual and each night has ended with a frantic crochet session to keep up with Gingerbread Girl's One-a-Day challenge over on Ravelry.. So far so good... 13 lovely little squares..
I am sewing in the ends as I go, blocking and stitching them into groups of 4.... hopefully when it comes to the final 'sew-up' it won't be a huge labour of love....
This project is quite calming really - no rush to complete this huge blanket, just a tiny wee pressure to spend 30 minutes a day...and the pattern flows easily off of the hook without even a second thought for a stitch count... bliss!
If you pop over to visit Gingerbread Girl now you will find links to other One-a- Dayer's Tuesday Tallies... we are a crafty bunch :)
I have an exciting moment coming soon.. do you remember this hexi-blanket starting back in June?
Well...it is almost done...I have sewn it all together, and I am just doing a lovely colourful stripey edging.. hopefully tomorrow will be time for my Ta Dah....
Your blocks look gorgeous,love that it's one colour,very elegant. I look forward to seeing your hexi Ta-Dah. Deb xxxxx

Your squares are looking really lovely, is yours a gift?it is a lovely pattern isn't it? And as you said you can do it without thinking too hard. I have some catching up to do!

You are making such wonderful progress on both projects. What an interesting shade of yellow for the first one and what a neat blanket of the bottom one.
