oooo I really like this one. Another one that would be quite lovely as a full blanket. I think a baby blanket would fit this one nicely.

Another simple one with texture from front-post double crochet stitches. I really like this square but it makes a really dense fabric. It would be really well suited for a pot holder.

I'm in dire need of more Old Leaf!! I thought I had enough but I am definitely running low. Anyone out there have any they would be willing to sell? Since it's discontinued I'm having quite the time finding some.

Kind of a boring one but it still has visual appeal for me. I picked out my color scheme for March's grannies last night, and they are going to be very pretty! There are 14 colors because of all of the flowers, so it was really difficult to find ones that didn't clash a lot. I'll share my picks at the end of the week since March first is still a week away.
Thank you soo much to everyone that has embraced this project!! I was a little worried that this little side project wouldn't have as many followers as my other blog, but it has done the opposite, bringing new people to my little internet home. So if you're new, I'm so glad you found me and are helping support this 365 project. Knowing that I have people following my project makes it so much easier to keep up with it!
