ROWS
Just two rows to go now, but will I have enough of the cream yarn to finish it????
Yesterday evening I found a couple of odd small balls and some bits, so I think it will be enough.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be.
The way this is going I think it will be finished this weekend, I CAN"T WAIT!!!!!!!!!

So Far So Good!!!

So far so good!
The blanket is coming along nicely I must say.
I've finished the 8th row now!!!
In an earlier post I said that I had finished all the middle bits of the flowers, well, now I've gone around them all with the cream yarn so that they are all ready to be joined.
Here they all are bagged up in rows ready to be joined.
Now I'm just hoping I'll have enough of the cream yarn to finish the blanket.
I just want to use up all of the cream colour I've already got before buying new.
I'd love to be able to make this blanket from yarn I already have, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I will have enough.
Have a great weekend everyone!!!!!!!

Japanese Flower Love

For the last couple of days I've been working on the middle bits of my flowers for my japanese flower blanket.
And as of yesterday they are all finished.

Here they are all bagged up per row.

I then start doing the third round of a whole row of middles before joining.
I'm joining the sixth row now and it's nearly finished.
I will take some new photo's of the whole blanket on Friday I think.

Now, what is this bag of goodies you may well ask. well, it is going to be my next project. Yes I know I haven't finished this one yet and I'm already thinking and working towards the next one. What is it going to be? I will share that in a later post, but one thing is this, it will be japanese flowers again because I love making them.
