College Afghans

Well I have been commissioned to do two college afghans -- one for the University of Wisconsin and the other for the University of South Dakota.
This is exciting as I am venturing into new territory - University of South Dakota. The colors are maroon, white and black which makes for an interesting color combination.
Now you can look forward to pictures of the finished products!!!

Until Later....Happy Creative Endeavors

Minnesota Musings



Last night we received 6 inches of snow. And today it was bright and sunny. I can tell spring is starting to come because our cold weather is not the below zero stuff as we experienced in January.

Guess what I did today?? I delivered a finished afghan to my brother and family. So now I have another UFO finished!!!

The pattern is a Vanna White pattern called "X's and O's" It is designed to fit perfectly in their living room, maroon with a blue square in the middle. This is a little different type of design, one that I did after the afghan was started. It is a challenge to do, add another color, after you have already started the afghan. It turned out great and they are appreciative of receiving it.

So what else am I working on? crocheted belt, Rudy the rectangle, and crocheted scarf for spring. The great thing about crochet is that one can be so creative with every project being different.
