Granny Ripple is Finished and Another Big Flower Blanket

Hello !
I finished the granny ripple this weekend and started another big flower blanket. You can see the first big flower blanket here..

These granny ripples work up pretty quickly . Here is the first granny ripple I made ..

I changed the pattern up on this big flower blanket , from a 4 stitch granny square to the normal 3 and left out all the chains except in the corners I did 2 chains. It makes it not so loose.. I am doing the join as you go and it is going pretty fast.

I have a bunch more flowers to be put into squares..All the yarn I am using is red heart yarn..

Thanks for stopping by and your nice comments ! Hope the rest of your week is great !

I'm Back ...Gardening and A New Blanket !

Hello !! I am kind of sad for vacation to be over , but glad to be back home at the same time :) We stayed in the tall building above in Panama City ,Florida, this time on the 4th floor... It was a wonderful trip .. we had pretty good weather with a thunder storm one day and sprinkles another day , but the rest of the trip was great HOT weather!

I finished the August cottage of the month while there from Country Cottage Needleworks.. Kind of fitting since its a beach scene :) It was nice to stitch or crochet in the morning before everyone got up on the balcony ..The alarm clock inside my head is set for 6am whether I am on vacation or not !

We got home Saturday to a garden full of goodness! This is 6-1/2 pounds of tomatoes which I turned into sauce by roasting them ..Here is the roasted sauce instructions

Aren't those little yellow pear shape tomatoes the cutest :)

I had some help yesterday picking the blackberries .. As you can see by his face he ate his share too ! Loves them ! Gobbles them up like candy . I finally broke down and picked some of the zinnias .. I planted a lot of packs of seeds just so I could pick them , and I haven't wanted to wreck the beautiful show in the yard. Last night I picked a bouquet for my daughter and one for myself.. I just love them !

I needed a project for the car ride to Florida 16-17 hours ! So I started this Granny Ripple blanket...

Not my typical colors , but its for my second oldest son..It has been going pretty fast .. I made one of these a couple years ago and here is that post ,With a link to the pattern.. I did make it bigger than the pattern ( added 2 more multiples of 17) , and I am using an H hook..
