"I've always thought my flowers had souls. . . they seem like real people to me. I've seen the roses rubbing their cheeks together as if they loved eachother, and the forget-me-nots are little blue-eyed children, half afraid of rest." 'Lavender and Old Lace' ~Myrtle Reed~

It's complete, now on to the next project!

I began working on this afghan way back in September, right before The Autumn Rain started school. Now, five months later I've finally finished it. I had no idea when I started that a Argyle patterned blanket would take so much time. I have to admit that while I won't be doing this pattern again any time soon I really enjoyed the challenge and subsequent satisfaction upon finishing this project.

Now, it's on to the next project. I've chosen a bursting star quilt as my next project, I have yet to pick out the fabric or piece together my experiment square to make sure I can make the quilt work out. I thought I ought to give the piecing a try before I buy up yards of fabric to make the whole thing, we'll see how it goes!
