I crocheted long enough to get one afghan made for each of my 3 girls. Then my hands started hurting and I switched to quilting. You can see my afghans on my blog. I believe I posted them back in 2008 or 2009.<br /><br />http://vicrace.blogspot.comEricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05337044624823632048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547078105029593115.post-12891054648889801762011-05-25T00:28:03.916-06:002011-05-25T00:28:03.916-06:00Melody - I only wish that I could take credit for ...Melody - I only wish that I could take credit for the crochet flowers - those are my inspiration!! <br />My current level of crochet is limited to sort of straight lines and dropped stitches, I'm hoping to one day be able to make something like the top picture!Kari @ The Purple Quiltapotamushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459176382817545248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547078105029593115.post-42574168177127738332011-05-24T23:48:34.758-06:002011-05-24T23:48:34.758-06:00Gorgeous work.

I hit YouTube last night and was mesmerized by watching a few videos on how to crochet flowers and got a little sidetracked from the Granny Squares. <br /><br />Heather - Oh my goodness, I love that afghan in Nanny McPhee!! I haven't seen the movie before but I googled 'granny square afghan in Nanny McPhee' and it came up with a still picture from the movie! Thats exactly what I would love to one day make - its beautiful and looks lovely to snuggle up in! <br /><br />Hopefully I can get the hang of crochet one day and be able to make something similar to that beautiful afghan in Nanny McPhee (if not I may need to etsy it in 10 years if I haven't made one by then!).Kari @ The Purple Quiltapotamushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459176382817545248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547078105029593115.post-50557104613682303982011-05-24T18:50:19.625-06:002011-05-24T18:50:19.625-06:00I am useless at crochet...

There is a fabulous granny square quilt on one of the kid's beds (along with many awesome quilts).Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03031841350937217798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547078105029593115.post-45748094907494431812011-05-24T18:29:11.367-06:002011-05-24T18:29:11.367-06:00I think you are off to an excellent start and we w...I think you are off to an excellent start and we will be seeing that granny square afghan in no time.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15438742462644374831noreply@blogger.com
