On my, oh my!
 Please take a look at this incredible afghan Claudia made from the
Puffy NOLA Sunset Afghan Pattern. 
And her cute cat. :-)

various other bright colors for the bobble rows.

I just love this variation!

Pink and Red Granny Rose Afghan of Love

Roses for a Mother..


This breathtaking afghan was made by Diane in Arizona for her mother's birthday.
A year and a half in the making!

Check out the beautiful lattice trim and the gorgeous shades of pink and red.
Diane used 10 skeins of yarn including seven different shades of red.
108 squares!

Warms my heart and makes me smile.

Thank you Diane, for sharing your beautiful afghan and your incredible talent.

Crocheters never cease to amaze me with their talent and love!

Experimenting with an Apple Blossom Dream Pillow

I've been experimenting with an
"Apple Blossom Dream Pillow"


I'm playing with a variation of my granny rose pattern from here.

A 3-D leaf row has been added,

and a variation of the border pattern from here.


This is the other side:

One big 3-D leafed granny rose square.

The back side of the border.

The enclosure.

I'm hoping to write this pattern some day...

What do you think?
Any suggestions?
Any recommended color combinations?
