After complaining about SIL's shower gift....

[Amanda Lou]

If you read my open letter to SIL about her idea to make a quilt for other SIL's baby shower, here's the square I did.

She loved them both, so they were both totally worth my time and effort.

You need to move closer so we can have arts and crafts hour.

Cute! THat is the emblem from Mary's shirt yesterday! Does it have meaning?

[Michele]

Beautiful!

The afghan! :faint:

[Jen]

Wow Amanda!!!! Those are awesome!

[taragunner]

Oh, that afghan is beautiful!! :swoon:

[Lisa]

Is it true that crochet is faster than knitting?

[Moke]

very pretty! I'm impressed!

[Jen]

I don't think so. I have made both knitted and crocheted longies and I really didn't feel one was faster than the other. IMO.

THat's Beautiful! I look forward to having the practice you have.

I just started practicing for a granny square baby crocheted blanket...and it is again more of a trapazoid..,,
:cry: :cry: perhaps the third try....

Did your square kick her square's ass? :D

Great job!

[Kate]

pretty!

[Amanda Lou]

Did your square kick her square's ass? :D

Great job!
Yes I did. Hers SUCKED. I'll bet she spend 3 mins. on it. SHe drew a heart with fabic paint and signed it.

Lizz--The tree is the tree of life, and yes, I copied it off Mary's shirt.

I think crochet is faster. That blaket was 30 inches long (not sure how wide) and took me about 40-45 hours to make (I think).
