Sneak Peak of the Week

I have always wanted to post things that I am working on and give a little "sneak peak".  So I think I will start to do that from now on :)
This is a little something I am working on for a baby girl who is set to debut in this world a few months from now.  I am really excited.  I love her Mama already, so I am sure this little girl is gonna be awesome as well!

The lighting in my apartment is terrible!  No wonder I am nearly blind and have headaches all the time.  LOL.  Since it was long after dark that I took this photos today, I couldn't run outside and do the sidewalk trick.


So I raised the flash.  I made some squares using a mix of a puff stitch hexagon pattern I learned some time last year.... and the granny square pattern I recently learned...

I can't wait to finish it and find some fantastically precious edging to put around it.  You will have to wait until next month to see everything put together.  I don't want to spoil things for Mama.  This is, after all, part of her baby shower gift set.

Nighty-Night!

  1. the two pictures look indeed completely different, in the first one the squares look yellow-ish, in the second one more like pint - but both versions look nice! Can't wait to see the finished blanket on the sidewalk :)

  3. Hahaha! You are so funny. If you lived here, even on a Sunday morning, you would be drunk! That's about all Kentucky's good for, sadly :) The lighting in my apartment is TERRIBLE!

  4. I love the squares- do you have a link to the patterns you used? Traditional granny squares are beautiful, but there's something about these- they look deliciously dense and are perfect for a baby. It's nice to see a departure from the run-of-the-mill lacy granny square!

  5. Yes! Please e-mail me the pattern, if you don't mind. I can't wait to try it out! I really think these might be the most original granny-ish square I've seen.
