That's lovely SS!

I've made 55 sunflowers now for my blanket - just 44 to go, then loads and loads of green edging and joining.

Also bought a yarn pack for a CAL, which is a first for me! I think I missed the first motif though so will have to get it somehow. It'll provide a bit of relief from all the green I need to do.

Crochet-Along - in this case a blanket of (can't remember how many) squares, with one square pattern being released each month.

I'll see if I can find a link - simplycrochetmag.co.uk - I subscribed to the magazine but think I missed the first block.

I bought the yarn pack from Love Crochet lovecrochet.com - it's cheap acrylic aran but that's fine as it's just continuing my obsession for making blankets for using in the garden so I don't want anything expensive or awkward to wash.

Ah I see, thanks. I really don't need any more projects anyway!

I do like the different things you can do with blocks though. I found some good books in the library last time I looked
